Wine equivalent of an aspiring gay man’s beard: not much by itself, better with a beefy dish.

Tangy and tart like an acerbic junior congressman anxious to make a good impression before he goes home to face his constituents.

One of the better bouquets I have snuffed, it’s all leather and hardwood like a seaport in a Conan movie. Low sugar with a great balance of fruit and tannin, it’s a worthy adversary, by Crom!

A suspiciously good cee-bee from Peru, which makes it even more suspicious. Fake label or not, it’s awesome. Full article here.

Imagine you bathed in grape juice and then bottled the bathwater. The only good thing about this wine is that you can give the cork to your child for an arts and crafts project.

As dull as a lecture on risk management in the paste-making industry. Pairs well with heaping plates of ennui.

A disappointing reez, the sputtering fizz makes one think it was produced in a New Delhi Pepsi plant. Best given as a Father’s day gift if you don’t like your father.

Serviceable like a 1975 VW Beetle. Their are better Wurtzes out there but this will do in a pinch.

A wine so bad you want to throw it at someone, which makes me think it was actually designed to be used as a Molotov cocktail for a Bruce Willis movie. I’d research what grapes they used, but I frankly can’t be bothered. Disgusting.

This is baby-making reez, gooey sweet and sexy.

A blend like no other, needs no sanctification to be used for holy rites, it’s that good. Full review here.

Inky like the depths of Cthulhu’s homeland, but too fruity to ever seriously be confused for a harvester of human souls.

A cunning foil for Sherlock Holmes, this is a complicated mystery of fruit, low tannin, moderate sugar and danky, crypt cobwebs. Forget the butler, the Argentinian malbec did it.

Finally, sullen fans of 99¢ boxes of golden raisins get a wine designed for them.

A common bottle you’re likely to find in a supermarket, and usually the only gwertz there. It’s not terrible given the locale, but too much carbonation makes it better suited for a 1950’s soda fountain.

A big, fat red sumo wrestler that will crush you under gobs of purple man-flesh. Come prepared, you wimpy milquetoast.

A Peter Brady zin, a middle child anxious to stand out by piercing his ear but never achieving much more than a job in the Post Office. Lacking the drama that the name and label imply. Imagine Gwar if they were Amish.

An unoffensive greech with better bouquet than sabor, pair with a bland fish dish to fool your guests into thinking that wasn’t week-old tilapia you just served them.

A tasty carménère, a cheap rent boy dressed for the opera, but who pulls of the charade and saves the night.
