Refreshingly chilled red wine is becoming all the rage with wine lovers, especially thanks to brands like Bonterra Organic Vineyards that are introducing light-bodied red wines that are perfect for chilling. Young Red is said to offer all of the "body and structure of a red wine with the dryness and refreshing profile of a white," making it an approachable product that has a deep color but a taste experience that's more comparable to something like a white wine or a rosé.
Young Red is fresh and fruity with notes of roses, fig, berries, orange peel, watermelon rind and pomegranate. According to the Bonterra Organic Vineyards site, "Young Red’s bright acidity and light profile make it ideally served chilled."
