Pride is back and Lifford Wine & Spirits Inc has put together a special mixed 3-pack to celebrate and share with friends — pink bubbly, zesty white, and juicy California red. Something for everyone, and all proceeds go to Rainbow Railroad.

DOMAINE ZINCK Crémant d’Alsace Rosé, Alsace / France

Crémant is made in the same way as Champagne and provides a lot of the same pleasure and complexity at a fraction of the price. This organic Rose version from Zinck is a top example. Look for notes of citrus, strawberry, cherry, toasted brioche, and a hint of baking spice. Creamy and refined!

VINCENT CAILLE Je T’aime Mais J’ai Soif, Loire Valley / France

This playful white comes from the Nantais region in the western part of the Loire Valley. It’s a spin on Muscadet and is made from the local Melon de Bourgogne grape. This is refreshing and citrusy with a savoury quality from aging on the lees. It goes down easy and is perfect for beating the heat. And it’s organic, too!

MARIETTA CELLARS Old Vine Red Lot 72, Sonoma / California

Old Vine Red is a delicious Zinfandel-based blend from Sonoma. It’s packed with juicy California fruit but is light on its feet without any extra weight or new oak. A ripe, juicy red with blackberry, mushroom, old-bark and tobacco character. Woody and tarry. Some moss, too. Full-bodied with round tannins and a flavorful finish. Mostly zinfandel. Real red. Drink now.
