I've been lately trying to see what
Pennsylvania wineries have to offer, as there are some good
offerings coming from Pennsylvania, but as I have been
discovering, there are some bad offerings as well.
I have often wondered if anyone every
writes a bad wine review, because it seems like they just
won't review something at all. And it's something that I
have been pondering over for two months now.
Unfortunately, I have had at least two wines that have made
me put in a negative review.
In a plain green bottle, with a simple
label, came a Chardonnay from Rose Bank Winery in Newtown,
PA. There is very little about the wine on the bottle, not
even the alcoholic content is given.
As I went to try it, I actually found one
of the most horrible tasting wines that I have ever had,
bordering somewhat on the highly toxic tasting gutter wines
favored by the local drunk that hovers outside of the
liquor stores door asking for change.
I could find nothing good to say about this
wine, so I can't recommend it to you. If anything, I dare
you to actually find something that you like about it.
That said, because it had so little
information on it, there is no way to ever know if this was
just one bad batch, and whether they will correct their
process and deliver another one.
