Raspberry is a popular flavor and fruit that is grown all over the world. Over 200 species of Raspberries can be found in the world, although the common red Raspberry, can be discovered mainly in the United States, New England, and parts of Canada. Scientists are unsure where the Raspberry originated because the fruit is grown on five continents and is one of the most ancient varieties of berries—dating back to 2,000 years. Raspberries are thought to have originated in Asia and are an important fruit in California, Oregan, and parts of the Midwest. The berries are round, and contain small prickly hairs, seeds, and a juicy interior. The fruit includes several varieties, including the black raspberry, yellow raspberries, purple raspberries, and golden raspberries. The fruit is typically planted in the winter and can be easily harvested. Raspberries are fermented and aged for months to create wine that has a sweet tone and slightly sour notes. Red raspberries produce a nice aromatic wine that is not overpowering, and it is great when combined with chocolates, desserts, or mixed with Champagne. Raspberry creates a lovely dessert wine and is also great paired with poultry dishes, such as pork chops.

Belle Glos Las Alturas Vineyard Pinot Noir is made from 100 percent Pinot Noir.
Deep garnet in color with an aromatic medley of black cherry, marionberry, ripe plum and a hint of anise. Dark fruit on the palate with flavors of wild berries, caramelized oak and cacao nibs complemented by subtle notes of vanilla, cedar and a hint of lavender and forest floor. Rich and unrestrained, this wine’s abundant fruit is beautifully balanced by firm acidity and layers of red and black fruit.
Review:
This extremely ripe and bold style of Pinot Noir will please those seeking such lushness. Dark in the glass, it begins with black cherry, toasty caramel and cola milk shake aromas. The palate is hefty and heavy, carrying ripe berry but also tart red-plum-skin flavors, as licorice adds spice

The Walls Curiositas Cabernet Sauvignon is made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon.
The Walls Cabernet Sauvignon comes from a variety of vineyards in the Red Mountain AVA providing structure and power on the nose and palate. Extremely aromatic and super silky tannins – loads of freshness, energy, full spectrum and super complex, with that great combination of weightlessness but great texture and length.
Review:
Coming from Red Mountain and 83% Cabernet Sauvignon and 17% Cabernet Franc brought up in 80% new French oak, the 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon Curiositas offers more red and black fruits to go with classic Red Mountain minerality, notes of graphite and tobacco, full-bodied richness, and building, firm, yet ripe tannins. It's going to need 3-5 years of bottle age, but it’s a classic expression of this terroir.
