This is lively and delightful wine made to enjoy tonight with a burger, pizza or tacos. And, if you’re alone and don’t think you can or should drink the whole bottle, Beronia is now offering half bottles of the wine. It’s made mostly from Tempranillo with a touch of Garnacha (aka Grenache) and Mazuelo and topped with a screw cap so you don’t have to remember where you left the corkscrew. Bright ruby color and forward blackberry, blueberry, cherry with a touch of vanilla pave the way to juicy berry flavors, black, blue and straw, mingling with a touch of citrus and vanilla, energized by frisky acidity and finishing with smooth as silk tannins.
