Community Tasting Notes 24

• boomecho Does not like this wine: 75 points

  August 24, 2014 - Bought one bottle to check it out because there are some very good blends being produced. I should've checked the community scores first. As with the Conundrum White, their Red Blend was just ok, nothing special, nothing to induce me to buy another bottle. Saved the remaining 2 oz for later to sautee mushrooms.

  January 4, 2014 - The scores for this wine range from dreadful to excellent - so I was unsure what to expect. The wine has decent fruity nose - that persists beyond the first few minutes. The taste is a mix of sweet and fruit - as several other reviewers have noted, and not unpleasant. But not much complexity or aftertaste. There is no noticeable wood. The wine has high alcohol - the bottle had 14.2%

  June 14, 2013 - I have been drinking white Conundrum for years, usually with fish at dinner. This red is a strange combination. I tried to find, online, what varietals were in it. Hard to get any wine stores/brokers/dealers to comment. I guess they want to help Charlie keep the secret. Here's what my unprofessional guess is... Syrah, Zin, Carignane and concord grape? LOL. It really doesn't need to be kept a secret. This will be the only bottle I ever buy.

  June 26, 2012 - picked this up on a flyer out of town at a wine store. I clearly hadn't read the reviews here before trying it but I can't disagree much. Just not special and didn't help that I overpaid for what is probably overpriced wine to begin with. not horrendous just not all that good/unique/interesting. will say it held up and did not get worse on day 2 (after I only had about 1/3 of the bottle on day 1).
