July 29, 2023 - 20 People Bring a Bottle (Good, The Bad & The Ugly) (Edina, MN): Not only are the labels stupid on Orin Swift Wines the juice inside the bottle is much worse. Other than Caymus who gets more for their juice. These are bulk grapes at best in these bottles with some Mega Purple thrown in. Sweet, watered down, brown sugar and damp earth. Again when people rate these are you applying the tasting process correctly? Love the appellation of California on these.

But then again the world of wine takes all tastes.
Be well. -
