1+1=3: You do the math

Bodegas 1+1=3's 2005 Cabernet Rose from the Penedes region of Spain is another great rose I just discovered. With tons of raspberry and watermelon on the nose, with an excellent crispness, and a bright pink color, it's medium-to-full bodied, and could be enjoyed with picnic fare, salmon, or chicken.

The winery's actual name is "U Mes U Fan Tres," a reference to the addition of 1+1=3 in Spanish, although I'm still trying to figure out why.

Look for this wine in the wine department at Whole Foods for about $14.

Dear Kelly,

I think "U Mes U Fan Tres" is not really the spanish adition of 1+1=3, but the CATALAN. As I've seen in their website, this is a winery located in the Penedes Region, in CAtalonia, Spain. So, I presume that U Mes U fan Tres means One Plus One Equals Three. Regarding the sense of this, I have also read that the effort of the 2 associates must become more than two, it has to summ up three...
Kindly,
