Chronic Cellars Purple Paradise 2017 Review
This is a party wine, hands-down. The wine does not reflect the blend, but who cares, right? The alcohol is high and will burn a bit going down, but that’s rock’n’roll. The label is a skull with flaming dice for eyes, like a concert poster from the 70’s, so it will look cool at a Halloween party, a rager or paired with BBQ at a cookout.
