The rating on this one was tough. Doesn't taste all that great, let's be honest. But it doesn't taste that bad, either. It's cheap, though, and friggin' strong! It also has no indication of vintage on the bottle, and the blurb on the back of the bottle claims that it's better newer. I don't know the type of wine that is generally better newer than older, but I but there is a pretty strong correlation between quality and ability to age. Definitely doesn't taste as bad as it could considering that.
Can't really think of the right occasion for this wine. The bunny on the label is drinking a glass on the beach - I can't really think of a better setting than that. Certainly not for dinner with grandma; she'd fall asleep in her dinner after telling some story that was probably better left untold.
