How do you prepare for an opponent riding an 11-game win streak, heavily favored at Mile High? You give them 76 minutes and 42 seconds of Ravens football. Double OT of Ravens football. A game-tying 70-yard touchdown pass from a quarterback built for January to a receiver who danced his way into end zones Ravens football. Oh, and with less than a minute left in regulation. Best served cold, 13 degrees cold.

We introduce you to Rocket 99. This Pinot Noir has aromas of cherries, raspberries, blackberries, and brown sugar with notes of baking spices. On the palate, the wine opens with bright, fruit flavors of strawberries, leading to a round mouthfeel on the mid-palate and soft, velvety tannins on a long, elegant finish.
