That label actually sounds like a pretty good description of Laphroig, my favorite single malt. Mucked out barn, used bandages, paint thinner ... mmmm good.

Isn't that pretty much how all wine tastes?

I think that was my beverage of choice for three semesters during my college years. If not that brand, one very much like it. Mix it with used bong water and man what a taste treat.

At 18% alcohol level, a little extra tang is detectable, from the addition of C2H5OH from who-knows-where. (Wine will only ferment up to a 16% level- anything above that has been - to use the street vernacular- needled.)
