See Saw Wine Marge Orange 2023 scores 92 points from Mike Bennie in WBM. “A Pinot Noir and Gamay blend of liveliness and drinkability. Crunchy texture up front, raspberry and blood orange in the mix, a touch of tart-sweet red berry fruitiness to finish and a flourish of green herbs and cinnamon spice. It feels energetic and ready to be drunk with a good chill. Does the trick.” $35. @seesawwine @orangewineregion #Marge #Orange #liveliness #drinkability #energetic #92 🙌🙌
