Cheap, but surprisingly tasty.

This is some shit. Tastes like 2+% residual. Tastes like a Vidal Blanc late harvest. It's a horrible Cgardonnay though.

Very strong fragrance, but smells decent as a small whiff. Tastes extremely sweet and bitter. Sadly, I was unable to finish it... I do NOT recommend this wine.

Ok. Seriously. Get over yourself. It's good. It's cheap, but drinkable. It's decent. It's more wine than vinegary. Enjoy it or move on.

I opened this bottle as a test. Grade? D-. Maybe. At this moment, sipping it like a 15 year old trying port. Can not wait until my better bottle is cold so I can pour this glass out.

I bought this to cook with, and as a result my seasoning / flavour masking skills were tested to the limit. This is horrible - oxidative, over extracted, some overripe fruit mixed with.... acid? Or some very green stuff... Aftertaste brings to mind Guantanamo Bay, in that someone may have just taken my used gym socks, urinated on them and stuffed them in my mouth. Good news is, it's cheap

Nothing distinctive at all, but nothing offensive either. A truly neutral wine.
