Blueberries. Light and tangy. No legs. Big smells. This wine is for sports fans. It softens the blow of a primetime spectacle when the latest superstar sells out. With glass in one hand and remote control in the other, all you can do is sit and watch as greatness dissipates and a newer, harder version of success reveals itself. As the disappointment fades, this wine reminds you that not everything is powered by corporate sponsors, not everyone gives up on their hometown, and not all hope is franchised.
