Good wine shouldn't be complicated. Like a rainbow or a puppy or a picture of yourself when you were slightly flushed, a good wine should make you feel happy to be alive, enjoying life, surrounded by family and friends. Don Ernesto's Crescendo! is just that kind of fun in a bottle--and a more-than-slightly volatile winegrower, too. This Crescendo! is all about combining fruit and spice in an explosive combination. Its nose of smoky cherry and berry and its mouth of spicy red and black licorice and silky tannins will make you want to finish the nottle and open another.Put a smile on your face: enjoy Don Ernesto's Crescendo!Gold Medal -- West Coast Wine CompetitionGold Medal -- International Eastern Wine Competition88 Points, "Highly Recommended" -- World Wine ChampionshipsRecommended -- San Francisco Chronicle
