    A rich rounded red wine, our full-bodied Shriaz-Merlot (13% ABV)
    Never heard of 'Shriaz'. Have we invented a new grape?!!

    A massively underwhelming look to the product.
    If they expect us to pay £12 for a £6 bottle of wine they need to at least make an effort with the label.

    It’s the sort of badly written rubbish you’d expect from Hearts.

    Almost zero effort, looks very poor.

    I’m all for backing the club but ‘generic fc’ plonk ain’t doing it for me.

    If you've tasted the stuff it's just nasty! Would toil to even put it in the £6 category.
    Clearly an over priced, novelty item aimed at being an ornament as opposed to drunk and enjoyed.

    Stupid question, what's wrong with saying Shiraz?

    Edit: Oh, I see it's spelt wrong

    I don’t think it was made to be an ornament - it wouldn’t look out of place in a bargain bucket in the Spar.

    To be fair it is 13% so they must be doing something right. Probably hoping to shift a few for fathers day.

    I am no connoisseur but there is nothing worse on gods earth than nasty wine.
    There is no excuse or need for the club to sell us such a product.
    We want to support the club financially but no need to take the pi** or sell us the **ss for that matter .
    Most of us are not fools and the rest should not be taken advantage of.

    The club could take a few lessons from Eden Mill about how to sell booze to the fan base. That first edition gin in the ceramic bottle was a thing of beauty. It was also outrageously overpriced but it was gobbled up by many on here (I bought two...). This wine looks like dug*****.

    Just opened a bottle of the red wine. Mid table performance taste wise and not a wine I will ever buy again!
    I think it would retail about £5.99 in an end bin.
    I don’t know how to post a picture of the underwhelming label.
