You might call this “Merlot-Light” – all of the flavor with less alcohol (10 %). Nobody knows more about making California wine than Gallo does, and they show here what can be done with a good idea, good grapes and conscientious winemaking. They pull the juice off the skins when they have just the right blush color.

Close your eyes, and it’s all there: flavors of ripe plum, blueberry, even tangy hints of cranberry. Light-bodied, refreshing, balanced.
