red
Firefly
The light rose hue of this wine compliments the soft aromas of strawberry, red raspberry, grapefruit, and pomegranate. The palate is light, yet rich, with intense red berry, raspberry preserves, lemon peel, and a slight minerality. Serve on its own chilled, or over ice with sparkling water as a spritzer.
