1 OUT OF 5 STARS

This is a bad, bad wine. And I don't mean that in the good way. This stuff is thicker and sweeter than molasses. Honestly, it was difficult to swallow. It's a good thing the sink drain is only a few feet away. This bottle will not be finished by yours personally. I'm pretty sure the toilet will see the end of this offering.

The reason I didn't give this bottle a ZERO: Because it's not quite as bad as the worst wines I've tried. But I would NEVER serve this stuff to anyone I didn't despise.

Usually I apologize to a winery I give such a low rating to, but in this case I'm not going to... A ONE is not a ZERO.

Wow, clogging the sink drain. Funny. Hey, review some white wines.
