“Giboin’s Pineau Rouge has been aged for over ten years in oak casks so that its red color has begun to lighten into that of a deep rosé. Candied fruits (cherry and currant) along with Corinthian raisins combine with some nuttiness, flavors that can’t stop me thinking of combining it with a chocolate-frosted brownie.” —Charles Neal, Charles Neal Selections
