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!

At 9% there is probably a high level of residual sugar, explaining the sweeter notes
Lol well done. I literally gagged reading these tasting notes.
What would you score it?
Never buy wines that sound like subdivisions!
Doesn’t even have an address for a distributor on it?
Just did some googling, based out of Ripon, CA
Did you lose a bet? Self loathing?? Don’t do that again!

Someone link to this post next time a question is asked about the validity of those little logos.
I used a screenshot of your pic to look it up with the Vivino app: https://www.vivino.com/wines/164478892
Ugh! Shouldn’t be legal to categorize this as wine.
