Boones Farm Apple Blossom

Return again to the "Summer of Love" -- 1969 when you might have had this "wine" between bongs of weed. Once again I must protest to my publisher with this affront to my senses.

What's there to say about a wine that has a nutrition label? It's a lovely, light, bright, green-tinged -- think lime green here -- with no real depth to it or structure. According to the label, the color comes from FD&C Yellow #5 and Blue #1. There's some real apple taste to this, small wonder considering the name, for both your nose and palette. There's not really a manufactured taste, say like Thunderbird, thank goodness. But there is a metallic aftertaste to this "wine" with a short finish if a respectable balance.

Best if served well chilled and you're crocked out of your mind on the drug of your choice! It's also suitable perhaps for use in taking the edge off your hunger, much like a McDonald's cherry pie.

I can’t believe Bob dignified this with a wine glass!

This smells like an apple Jolly Rancher, with a slight medicinal kick of an undertone. Legs? What legs? This sheets like rain in a Cat 5 hurricane. Somewhat tastes like a Jolly Rancher too. I wonder if they market this as Slurpee fixin’s to sell to eight year olds?

And I quote; “Holly Crap that’s Bad!” said Bob as he then poured himself ANOTHER glass! Bubbles or not, mine went down the river, much to the complaint of the water sprites.

PS: Yes the bottle is really clear glass! The “apple” green color does come from the “wine.”

I mean REALLY? Boone's Farm?

That's like the being a food reviewer and being forced to eat skittles.

My condolences.

Yes, Really!

We don't discriminate at that site. We sometimes drink awful stuff, and sometimes as a joke, (like here). And if you don't believe me, check out the Thunderbird review. And yet someone read that review and wondered where to get some for a cake they were making. And then there was this perfectly normal looking red from Chile that smelled for all the world like gasoline.

Go figure!
