Tasting: Sutter Home Sweet Red

Sutter Home Sweet Red from California for $6.00

Sutter Home describes this wine on their site, “This inviting wine blend promises you the taste of sun-ripened cherries and juicy peaches all in one pour. Enjoy our sweet red chilled on a warm day, or pair with grilled meats, spicy Asian cuisine, and light cheeses.”


This wine was sweet but not over powering and was easy to enjoy with chicken. I was able to pick out cherry flavors while drinking.

Notte Rossa Lambrusco an Italian Red for $7.00 A review thought this of the Lambrusco, “This is a better Lambrusco from Emilia, IGT. Deep garnet colored, moderate plus sweetness, little acidity or tannins. 7.5% ABV. Red fruit flavors. Will go over well with our dinner guest this evening. Easy drinking, inexpensive and fun!” The wine was alright quality, about the same tier as wine I’ve been drinking, just a very mild style. Was able to pick out some fruit flavors and understand why this wine is used in sangria.

The wine was light and crisp and tasted faintly of peaches and pears. It received a rating of 3 stars on most wine forums, and I agree with the communities sentiment. It is a great affordable option but definitely not one I will drink regularly. Reviewers wrote either about its great affordability or their disappointment in its taste.
