Sorry to read that Nick. I’m with you re the dark berry/cherry taste but I don’t find it sweet. But hey, as you say, it’s each to their own and if you don’t try ....
That said, both Apothic and Cupcake (M&S) US red don’t taste the same as a year or two ago ....
I sometimes drink it after food.
Perhaps it’s time to try something else myself .... (but I’ve still good a few bottles to get through first)
Absolutely no reason to apologise Taff, I was curious to try it out.
Re taste I finished off a bottle of Beaujolais Villages t'other day. A lighter wine altogether, lovely & refreshing.
Its ABV is/was 10.5%, whereas the Apothic is 13.5%>
Thereby lies the difference
Anyway, as Oscar suggests, "a man should try everything once, except Morris Dancing and Incest"
