I read about this one in Enthusiast so I had to try it for myself. Egad, this is the
best cheap wine going! Like red but want the refreshing qualities of a white? Here 'tis. Check out the
composition of this great screw-top.
36% Sangiovese, 25% Barbera, 12% Zinfandel, 11% Carignane,
5% Mourvedre. Less than 5%: Viognier, Petite Verdot, Nebbiolo, Freisa, Aglianico, Cabernet Franc, Charbono, Chenin Blanc, Cinsault, Grenache - plus 5% kitchen sink.
It just plain works. I'm a regular consumer of rose from Province, Tavel, and Argentina, but here's a California cheapie with much umph. Wanna know what it costs? $8 - $10. Yep. Melony, grapefruits, Jolly Rancher-ish with a big nose for a rose. Zin and sangiovese are apparent.
Heck of a buy here. Better still, it's available almost everywhere!
T-scale 90. Figure in the affordability and availability and that 90 could be higher.
