This was a very light, yet extraordinarily refreshing wine.
Eye: Dark crystalline ruby with magenta highlights.
Nose: Refreshing, ripe, crisp nose of freshly-crushed grapes, strawberries, and plums, with a background notes of stoney minerals and maple syrup.
Mouth: Ripe, crisp, and refreshing (sorry to repeat myself, but it is), with light body and crisp but unobtrusive acidity. Just want to keep quaffing this stuff down! Seems to whet and quench the thirst at the same time. Lots of fun.
Score: 88.
Cellar or drink? Drink before 2009 gets here for maximum fun.
Price/store: Was $17 at Spec's on Holcombe.
