Ever wonder if there's a wine for St. Patrick's Day? We've uncovered a rare gem that bridges the gap between wine enthusiasts and Ireland's beer-centric holiday traditions. The 19 Crimes Revolutionary Red Limited Edition sports a festive green label and features an Irish revolutionary who reportedly broke out of prison and stole a ship – one of many fascinating stories behind the brand named after offenses that could get you deported to Australia in the 1800s.
What makes this wine particularly intriguing is its chocolate, coffee, and caramel flavor profile – notes that mirror those found in traditional Irish stouts like Guinness. Though not actually trying to be a wine version of stout, these flavor similarities create a subtle connection to Ireland's beverage heritage. The blend reportedly contains Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, and surprisingly, Chardonnay – an unusual combination that showcases Australian winemaking techniques where white grapes occasionally join reds to add brightness and "shine."
Beyond the taste, this wine offers genuine entertainment value. The label features augmented reality technology – point your smartphone camera at it and watch as the Irish revolutionary comes to life and tells his story. At under $10, it delivers exactly what value-conscious wine drinkers appreciate: approachable flavors, a fun experience, and a conversation piece for gatherings. Whether you pour it into a green glass for St. Patrick's Day or simply enjoy it as an everyday red, this limited edition proves that wine can find its place in unexpected celebrations.
