Curiosity got the better of me
| the funniest wine i've ever seen. the only thing i know about this wine is that it's a red from somewhere on earth. no vintage or appellation information at all. it doesn't even say what country it's from! it's absolutely astounding, great stuff. extremely light, transparent ruby color. no legs, but that's not surprising since it's only 9% alc strong nose of raspberry and maraschino cherry. some chocolate as well. any oaky notes smell highly manipulated, though. i assume either heavy chip usage or some chemical manipulation. initial tasting notes are sour gummy bears & raspberry, with that strong artificial oak flavor. the flavor doesn't develop at all. it's closer to kool-aid than it is to wine. it was a fun experiment. was it worth the $3 i spent on the bottle? no, not really. cheers!
