TODAY'S FEATURED WINE

Lewis Perdue's Rating of Jana Winery: Pinot Noir: Napa Valley - California: : 2014: United States

This rosé of Napa Valley Pinot Noir is über dry but serves up nice splashes of strawberries and a hint of grapefruit. Totally made for the shade on an hot summer day. $18 retail.

 REVIEW POLICY:

For winery tasting samples, gifts from friends or family or samplings at a party or event, review it truthfully, but only if I like it. If I have paid my own very-hard-earned money on a bottle, the gloves are off and it gets what it deserves ... whether perfect or puerile.
