Evil Bitch


I am such a sucker for a sexy label on a bottle of wine. A couple of months ago I found a bottle of "Bitch" at Whole Foods (love their wine section!) and bought it for my wife. It was a really drinkable Australian Grenache in a cool bottle. Screw top made it perfect.

So, I come home the other day and find she has purchased me a bottle of Evil. How darn good is that! The bottle is all black and red (contrasts to the pink of the Bitch) and screams "bad bad boy".
What does this Evil taste like? Fruit, like that which must have tempted Adam and Eve. Evil tastes of sharp fruit, some currants, and a bit of oak on the back of my tongue. Evil has a fair bit of alcohol coming off of it in the glass, but that is not overwhelming. I taste a tiny bit of pepper on my tongue after the wine goes down.
