My review: A friend of a friend purchases a truckload of grapes once a year and this year produced 600 or so bottles. We opened one. Does not taste or smell like any wine I've ever had. Upon opening the bottle reminds me of bare feet in a humid basement - was not a fan of the smell. After letting it sit out for an hour or so blackberries are prevalent on the nose. Pours a very translucent red - the color of strawberries. There is a distinct flavor that I have chosen to dub "the homemade flavor" for now. Not a wine I would necessarily consider complex, but a simple dark fruit seems to stand out. Overall a little funky but ultimately fun to drink.
