Starting a "new" tasting group (slave2thevine's house): I have to say that just because it's red and alcoholic doesn't mean that it should be able to recieve the label of 'red wine'. This was the least enjoyable red of the night for me. It had a burnt rubber/trash aspect on the nose that was detracting from what little fruit could be noticed. In the mouth it was light, and astringent on the finish...which was almost non-existant. I do not see how they could keep selling their product if this is what it tastes like every year...

Cheap, easy drinking red. Not much here to like or dislike. Some berry notes and cocoa.
