Wild Vines Blackberry Merlot

Pros: Goes down easy.
Cons: Chemical soup anyone?

My Mom thought it was rather continental to let us kids have a half glass of watered-down wine with special dinners. I still can recall the mouth puckering taste of Cabernet Sauvignon, Grey Riesling and other fruit of the vine that only tasted...

Pros: Inoffensive, good for folks with the kid palate, neat bottle.
Cons: Overpowering flavor.

I've s aid in the past that flavored wine-based beverages like Wild Vines and Arbor Mist shouldn't, despite being marketed as wine, be judged by the same standard as or in comparison to wine. Hence you won't find me in ...

Pros: Inexpensive and has some taste
Cons: Doesn't have the taste of real blackberry wine.

I am totally starting over again with this review. The original was the second I had written and to be perfectly honest it stunk. I have learned a lot since those first reviews thanks to the help of a lot of very nice people here at Epinions.

...

Pros: Pleasant flavor and aroma; inexpensive
Cons: None other than it is not the best wine around.

The first time I saw Wild Vines wine at the grocery store I was flipped back into the past. Was it possible? Had Annie Green Springs been brought back to life under another name? I shook my head and walked away, thinking "oh no" to...

Pros: Could strip paint
Cons: The worst drink EVER!

Even as verbose as I am, the words to describe how nauseating and undrinkable this wine is escapes me. It has all the body and personality a bottle of fermented Juicy Juice cut with urine. The single worst beverage I have ever been exposed to,...

Pros: Tastes like fruit punch, good for new or non-wine drinkers, inexpensive
Cons: Tastes like fruit punch

I've bought this wine several times because I have a family member who does not like the taste of the wines that the rest of the family drinks. Basically she is not a wine drinker, but would like to feel that she is drinking with us. She LOVES this...

Pros: Taste, price
Cons: Small bottle

I have always been a fan of E&J Gallo but they have surpassed themselves with this economy wine. This has the rich, recognizable flavor of blackberries without the bitter aftertaste of a traditional merlot.
This wine is the "unwine" as...

Pros: Bursting with fruitiness
Cons: 2 Glasses are never enough

I too buy "Wild Vines' Blackberry Merlot". *I usually drink the whole bottle, and that's how I know it's good. Who could drink a whole bottle of bad wine? What I consider good, is whatever I like. Sorry, but I can't advise which foods...

Pros: price, taste, sweetness
Cons: I'm no expert on wine. I just like this stuff

Well, I can see that judging by a couple of the epinions here, this isn't the best of the wines out there. But hey, let's take it from my perspective. You're walking down the aisle at Wal-mart, and you get to the wines. Having not had any wine for...

Pros: good texture, great taste, inexpensive
Cons: can't think of any

My boyfriend and I first tried this wine because, as much as I hate to admit it, because it was cheap. We also tried this wine because I am not a wine drinker, I often dislike many of the wines I have tried in the past, but a blackberry merlot sounded...

Pros: Not as bitter as most red wines.
Cons: Not a favorite of the wine experts.

I am by no means a wine expert so forgive my lack of technicality when reviewing this wine. I hate beer and usually find myself nursing a wine cooler in social situations. Wine is usually entirely too bitter for me. What a nice change I found in Wild...

Pros: Taste, Price, No Cork, Chicks Dig It
Cons: I know, "Chicks" is not PC (Sorry)

If you are like me it wasn't long ago that you pronounced Merlot just as it is spelled because you didn't know any better.

Last week I had the perplexing challenge of bringing wine to a friends house for Thanksgiving dinner. Being recently...

Pros: No cork to mess with. Delicious fruity flavor with pleasant fizz. Serve slightly chilled.
Cons: None. I really can't think of any. Either you love it or you don't.

My love affair with Wild Vines Blackberry Merlot started several weeks ago. I had purchased an expensive bottle of wine...(no name to protect a certain famous film director) and had taken it to my sister Cyndi's house to thank her for being such a ...

Pros: Fantastic. Smooth, flavorful
Cons: none

This wine is an excellent, smooth wine. The price was very small and I was totally surprised. I really enjoyed it. I have since bought four more and I don't drink that much. I wanted to share it with my friends.
I think it is an excellent wine...

Pros: Great taste, especially for those of us that don't like "real" wine!
Cons: May not technically be wine.

My husband and I have really tried to like wine and just haven't been able to do it. We are in our thirties and are trying to live a healthier lifestyle and thought we'd add a little wine since it is supposed to have health benefits. Well, as I said, we just couldn't do it until . . . . . For all of us wanna-be wine drinkers out there this is a great compromise. I love it and it is all I can do to not drink the entire bottle as soon as I open it. I also love that I can pick up a big bottle for a little over $6 every time I buy groceries at Wal-Mart.

So, if you generally don't like the taste of wine this is the one for you. There is no cork and I'm not sure it really counts as true "wine", but who cares. It tastes great!
