G 7 Moons Red Blend
This blend opens with aromas of chocolate-covered cherries, baking spices, and vanilla bean. Flavors of strawberry preserves, cherry cola, and milk chocolate follow through to a fruit- forward, lingering nish.
H Cooper & Thief Red Blend

is a rich avor with a long, lingering nish.
I The Velvet Devil Merlot

J Ravage Cabernet Sauvignon

K Saved Red Blend

L Saved Magic Marker Rosé
With aromas of light red fruit and rhubarb, accented by a hint of thyme and grapefruit zest, this wine has a crisp and bone-dry mouthfeel. Fruit avors
of grapefruit, ripe strawberry, and honeydew ll the mouth.
