Trust the ratings. This is a bad wine. Awesome bottle though- which is why I bought it in the first place.

More fun than a barrel of itself. It really shines. It’s own kind of business really. No wrench of any kind....um...i went bananas for it.....ok I’m done.

Great bottle. Wine is clean, medium body with a subtle smoke flavor

Yup, I fell for the bottle as well- I shouldn't have... Lack of structure, tastes like slightly fermented cranberries.

Why is the lowest rating a 6.1?! I've never dumped a bottle of wine out that hadn't gone bad. Sickeningly sweet, disgustingly thin, horrible flavors. Cool bottle though!

No redeeming quality. Wanted to try this blush Pinot. Bought for the cool bronze monkey on the bottle. That's the only good thing. Very dry and really needs some bubbles or garnish, really fell flat and not even good for cooking!
