Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, September 14, 2011 - I was so curious what this supermarket wine was all about, so I spent $9. (I know I overpaid a bit)
Vodka was dominant on the nose and palate. I was very surprised to see 13.5% alc on label.
There is some blackberry on the nose/palate, but the tannins are very bitter, and the finish is short.
There is some pleasant sweetness. One good thing about this wine is that it doesn't taste too artificial. (compared to some low-end california cabernet's that have vanilla wood chips and sugar)
I've had worse wine, so this isn't so bad. It is certainly drinkable, but why insist on buying this wine over and over?
