Tasting:

    He said: Ruby red color. Light cherry aromas with hints of alcohol. Harsh, acidic fruit taste that gets even more harsh in the medium-length finish. Terrible and that says it all.

    She said: Sorry to say, this is not even as good as my cheap box wine. Little or no aroma or flavor. Harsh, light bodied and the medium long finish is not a plus. At $11.99 it is a rip off. It’s a harsh blah wine with nothing to recommended it.
