  4/30/2023 - ChairmanKao Does not like this wine: 70 Points

  ABV: 14.5%. Received this bottle as a gift and I've never heard of this producer. Searched on their website and couldn't find the varietals in this blend. The nose exhibits red fruits, toasted oak, and a hint of paint thinner from the alcohol. On the palate, this wine is very fruit-driven, but in a sugary/cake frosting manner as I can't detect any acidity to help balance it out. The finish is extremely short. This wine lacks depth and it has no identity, but I'm sure it appeals to novices. I'm scared to know how much this bottle costs as I may be even more disappointed after learning the price.
