Keum Hwa Winery 2003 Wild Grape Dry Meoru (Jiri Valley)

Online Exclusive

Price $16

This is an approachable version of the slightly wild and dry red Meoru grape of South Korea. Spicy and bright on the nose, the wine follows with vibrant fruit flavors that are a touch pointed when not paired with food. A great way to explore a lesser-known wine-producing region. — S.K. (8/1/2007)

Keum Hwa Winery 2004 Castle Wild Grape Dry Meoru (Jiri Valley)

Online Exclusive

Price $11

Meoru is an indigenous red grape grown on Mt. Jiri in South Korea. The aromas are spicy and smoky, and on the palate, the wine is spicy and bright, if a little dry and wild. Meoru is reputed to have extraordinary antioxidant strength, so beyond possibly doing something good for your body, you'll also find this wine an exotic discovery. — S.K. (8/1/2007)

Keum Hwa Winery 2003 Ajakae Wild Grape Sweet Meoru (Jiri Valley)

Online Exclusive

Price $6

This sweet version of the wild-at-heart Meoru grape of South Korea's Mt. Jiri might be a little touch to love for American palates, though its jammy and spicy aromas and flavors are not unappealing. A little rustic and sappy but with dessert or after a meal, a fun find. — S.K. (8/1/2007)
