Once again it's Gaudete Sunday, so, as is the tradition in Vinoland, a pink wine has been selected for this evening's libation. My wine choice for this 3rd Sunday in Advent is a 2011 Phoenix Ranch, Bechthold Vineyard (Lodi AVA), rosé of Cinsault. A pale salmon pink in colour, this saignée is packed full of flavour, big on strawberry-ness, with a really long finish. Good stuff.
