4e Winery’s Prairie Star, a 2023 American white blend from South Dakota, was disappointing. Initially offering an appealing scent of white flowers, it ultimately delivered a bitter taste resembling soy sauce and old gravy. With a final score of 2.5/10, it’s not recommended for consumption.

    Not the only disappointing white blend from SD delivering “a bitter taste.”

  2. Crossing South Dakota off my list of go-to wine destinations.

    The state of Maine does not have good wine either.

    I kinda want to try it now just because of how bad it is.

    I’m on a mission to try wine from every state in the US. I’ll make sure to avoid this specific producer.

    Oregon is here when you’re ready 👋😂

    I’d like to see your rankings posted here after this experiment is complete. Top 3 are pretty clear but from there it’s very unclear, to me at least.

    Every state produces wine, including the only 4 that actually should.
