    Five top reds under $40

    2022 Mount Terrible Pinot Noir Rosé

    Light but vivid hue. Strawberry/raspberry aromas: purity for short. This has real presence, real pinot fruit. Made from the ground up. Its mouthfeel and texture are also admirable. And don’t be scared of keeping some bottles for a year or two.
