Anywho, Pacquiao is the best pound for pound pugilist in the world today. But, if he should (in the future) touch gloves Floyd Mayweather, I really think Floyd Mayweather will pick him apart cuz Pacquiao is extremely careless.

Thanks for your comment Giam! At least we can both agree on the label. You do make a good point that it might work in the “easy to drink” category of wines. It’s been a while since I tasted it, but I probably had my heart set on drinking something that would measure up to the name and the blend of grapes. I will give the new vintage a try when I see it.
Cheers!

I tasted this wine, and actually seems to me a pretty solid wine for the price. Besides the label, that wants to draw laughs more than serious experts, the wine and the blend seems pretty consistent: medium body, nice spiciness with a smooth tannic complexity and a lot of fruit, intermingled with the final spiciness of the zinfandel that is pretty evident on the long finish….I think that in the class of "easy to drink wines" it could actually have a nice space. The comment seems a little too harsh for a 10 dollars wine!!!
But everybody has its own favorite brand and flag to keep high!!!
