STONE'S ORIGINAL GINGER WINE

Currants are dried and rehydrated and then are steadily fermented in large vats. Powdered Australian ginger root is added and slowly absorbed, aided by the wine's natural acidity and alcohol. Short storage in wood casks. 13% alcohol.

TASTING NOTES:

Amber color with ginger on the nose. Tastes like ginger ale with a spicy kick. Zippy.

SCORE & RECOMMENDATION:

Pretty hard to give this a score because there's nothing to compare it too. However, I did not find it to be something I could really enjoy drinking. That said I marinated some cod with sage and spices and it made for a pretty good marinade. If you are a ginger fanatic or long for a different twist on mixed drinks this might be worth a try. Retails for around $11.
