2022 a chillable red-ish wine

We don't like to pick faves but this year's chillable red may be even sassier than last. It's the perfect bridge between fall and winter--light enough to enjoy on warmer days but with enough structure to last into the chillier ones. It's juicy and mouthwatering, with extremele leves of gluggablility. Think strawberry jam, swedish fish, and those beloved juicy-juice boxes of yesteryear.
