We love a crushable red wine with a nice chill as much as the next human and this one truly delivers on its promise. One sip will transport you back to the cafeteria line, where you stood sippin’ on a cold purple juicy-juice box while you waited for your tray of sloppy joes. Or as Andy puts it, "It’s the adult in the room that’s a kid at heart ❤️.” This is our first ever gamay pinot blend and we think it’s gonna go absolutely wild around your Thanksgiving table next to all that butter and cream. Drink it chilled and drink it fast--it will make the night a lot less stressful we promise.

We think the Lip Smacking Frooty Tooty Red is just about as perfect of a holiday table pairing as they come. This wine makes your lips pucker and smack with delight, which means it thrives alongside things like roasted turkey and ham, or a side of buttery mashed potatoes. It’s structured enough to hold its own alongside some of the holiday heavy hitters and a perfect way to wash down a raucous night with the fam. 

Winemaker Notes:

While the name might be playful, this wine is 100% the adult in the room (albeit the cool parent). Based on passe-tout-grains, the Burgundian method of fermenting Gamay and Pinot Noir together, this wine is styled slightly differently, with each varietal being fermented separately and then blended together before bottling. The Pinot Noir brings brightness and red fruit (think strawberries and raspberries), while the Gamay Noir provides blackberries, plums and a pleasing note of granite. Fans of everything from Burgundy to Cabernet will find something to love here. A guaranteed winner around the holiday table, no doubt.
