The “Modern Art” Of Wine: Familia Zuccardi Innovacion: Touriga Nacional
Take a hard look at this wine. A hard look.
Got it?
This wine is fucked up.
It created about a 1.5 to 2 hour conversation. First we thought the wine had gone bad, then we just thought it was bad wine, then we realized it smelled like Tequila, then we thought it was bad wine, then we though it had gone bad. Repeat.
It did test like Tequila. It might have been tequila and cranberry juice. We ordered shots of tequila and confirmed it tasted/smelled like tequila. Theories of plants mating between fields emerged, genetic science, nano technology, it’s hard to say what “man” did to this poor wine.
A small 33.3% of the crowed surveyed indicated it tasted like cigarettes.
Then Joel detected a faint port taste, which was confirmed. It was still bad wine, which smelled like tequila, and for the first 10 mili seconds tasted like port.
This is the modern art of wine. It challenges what you think “good” wine is. And as Joel said, “this is the wine that will bring you back to when you first tasted wine as a kid”. Because it is fracking gross. And challenging? The thing is they make good wine, so are they purposefully making bad wine? What is good wine? What is bad wine? Where am i?
RATING: NEARLY UNDRINKABLE
*I didn’t think such a thing was possible.
LOL! Finally some *bad* wine. How did it compare to my home made stuff at 18%??
Makes my wine look/taste good?
Hah that is actually what Joel asked :)
It was worse :), I could drink a full glass of yours and like it (but not much more), this one just was gross with every sip.
love, ben
