2010 LUCIA
ON THE NOSE:
Homemade Blueberry Pie,
Raspberry Sauce & Cranberry Chutney

ON THE PALATE:
A Layer Cake of Blackberry, Cherry
& Marion Berry (frosted with 'Lovely')

This is a bottle for which I pine.
It has become a favorite of mine
for its flavor that I love to savor
& for the man behind the wine.

I raise my glass to you, Bill.
Your Lucia is entirely lovely.

Cheers,
Allie

Generally speaking, I'm modest not bold,
seldom dressing in gems lined in gold,
But I felt it befitting as the wine was emitting
such a degree of grandeur to behold.
