Dear God, I was just looking for a review, I hadn't realised the world of wine was so vitriolic, sneering and tribal. I'll toddle off back to the spirits blogs in a moment.

I think Cairn o Mohr is alright. Certainly heavy on the alcohol, but then it can be difficult to find reds that aren't. Wouldn't go out of my way to get it. In case that wasn't nasty enough: everyone in the world apart from me is an arsehole. Toodle pip.

Only if you are A TOTAL TARD, can you justify wasting seven pounds on the nasty cairn potty water, the so called "5 great taste Gold awards" clearly a sympathy vote, attempts to help market a lame product to a ridiculous consumer group, who clearly have no taste.

Good wines made of grapes show complex flavours and age with dignity. This shameful alcoholic fruit juice has a name - ALCOPOP.

As always, I appreciate comments, for or against my writing.

First of all, I'd appreciate it if you didn't hide behind the all to convenient "Anonymous" name. I stand by what I write and am happy to put my name to it. Wine snob I may be, but experienced taster too and these products are not very good.

Secondly, I am not trying to be balanced or fair, nor do I want to be "constructive" to products that are not worthy of it. Most wine writers only write about the good things they try, and I think that rubbish should also be shown for what it is - total crap.

Also, to Anonymous number 2, I say without context, there is no meaning. If this was a fruit wine competition, I could see that these wines could be the best of a bad bunch, but if it was a serious wine competition, and these wines were up against "fuddy duddy wines" (you know, ones made of grapes), then the result may be different. Also, when was the last time you saw Chateau Lafite-Rothschild winning an award? Yet nobody is going to tell me that that wine is worse than some £5 "best value wine award" winner that has a shiny sticker on it.

I notice, on the Oak and Elder sparkling wine, it receives a Bronze award in the UK Fruit Wine Association competition, so perhaps the five gold awards were from this group of hippies.

A couple more things. Firstly, you have reviewed my product, my product is this website. You've expressed that you don't like it and that is fine. Message received and understood, and I doubt you will read my blog again.

Finally, I bought these wines with my own money, so I can say what I damn well want. Stick that in your Mancunian Cairn o Mohr bottle and smoke it!

Not a fair or balanced review in my humble opinion...

Not a fair or balanced review in my humble opinion. You obviously have a problem with the clients who purchase the product as opposed to the wine itself, I spotted 5 "great taste Gold awards" on various bottles, does that mean the award panel are unworthy of judging? Please point us in the general direction of your product so we may review - its the easiest thing in the world to be destructive, how about next review you try to be constructive. Your fuddy duddy "wine" has a grape that doesnt even taste nor smell like the fruit,like you sir - fake.
