Winery Review: New shoes, salsa lessons, and laughing with friends. Kick up your heels with our fun, frisky White Merlot. Soft, juicy cherries mingle with fresh raspberries on the palate leading to a lush, lip-smacking finish.

My Review: On the nose, I smelled sweet strawberries, and the first sip was basically grape juice. This rosé was sugary and fruity right off the bat, and the midpalate waned into a clean, watery wine. The aftertaste was crisp, but the more I sipped the better it seemed to get; secret ingredient must be cocaine. Kidding. Anyways. I had this one without any food, and that was quite alright.
