Obtained from: Purchased at Total Wine & More
Price: $11.00
Wino4Life Category: Everyday Wine
Aeration before tasting: Just a swirl or two, no special aeration.
Cork Condition: Screw Cap - no defects or issues.
Appearance: Wine is clear, with a pinkish-red color that very much resembles watermelon.
Aroma: A pleasant aroma of red fruit and more red fruit - cherry and strawberry.
The Grade: I give this one a B. Not my favorite in this category and price, but a pleasant wine overall. The bit of residual sugar may make this a good match with spicier foods such as Chinese or Indian. Any of your friends or family hold-outs from the White Zinfandel era? This wine may be a way to ease them into trying some better pink wines.
