Wow, its been 8 days since anyone's posted here. That must be a record.
Anyways, I bought this box wine because it was cheap ...ish and nice to look at. 1.5L of pure California Cabernet.
Heavy porty nose and tonnes of wood chips. Color looked a bit oxidized which surprised me seeing that it was in a sealed plastic container. Proof that box wines don't age... [img]http://wines.com/ubb/smile.gif[/img]
In teh mouth, very sweet, like port in fact, but oxidized, wood chipped, and just gooppy... One sip, 1.5 L down the drain.
