- ($58) Full medium ruby. Strawberry and raspberry aromas complicated by exotic suggestions of apricot and peach pit, plus a whiff of flowers from the addition of a bit of viognier. Plush, silky and sexy, with the exotic apricot quality carrying through on the palate. Seamless and easygoing, finishing with very light, suave tannins. If I had tasted this from a black glass, I might have picked it for a white wine! Interesting and different.
