A nice non-alcoholic aperitif or thirst-quencher. Somewhat pricey, yes, but better than most soda or juice alternatives. I’ve tasted it and thought it was delicious.

I guess I'll ahve to try one then. Someone else mentioned that it tasted Ok to them as well. El Jefe - Interesting. So you prevent alcoholic fermentation, bottle it then mix it with alcohol. Genius! Dr. - I don't see why they shouldn't try! I think the regs are a bit more lax for non-alcoholic beverages. I could be wrong though... Farley – Thanks for the note. I guess I’ll ahve to try one then.

On the other hand, The Grapes of Roth was pouring their grape based vodka at the SF tasting, and they were preparing a cocktail with lime and fresh grape juice that was devastatingly delicious. In fact, that cocktail may replace the margarita at Twisted Oak as the crush drink of choice... (I can attest to Farley's good behavior in SF by the way. Sara, on the other hand...)

(Though I spat all day, I swear.) I liked it well enough, but you're right. Money better spent on a bottle of full force. And I preferred the white to red, anyway.
