Description

Gold Medal, Orange County Fair Chroma is a Tempranillo dessert wine made in the traditional port style and named for its intense purple color. We can’t call it Port but this traditional after dinner drink is richly colored, dense, silky and sweet without being cloying. It’s a good end to a special meal or to sip when you want something different.
