Description

San Wild Grape Crate Sweet is an 11.5% ABV sweet fruit wine from Sudosan Winery in Gyeongsangbuk-do, showcasing wild mountain grape (sanmeoru) in its most generous, dessert-oriented expression. This is the sweetest entry in the Crate lineup, and it leans into sanmeoru's lush berry character without apology. The nose is rich with ripe wild blackberry, grape jam, and a warm, slightly earthy sweetness. On the palate, the body is medium with a mellow, enveloping texture that coats the palate generously. The sweetness is front and center, but the sanmeoru's natural freshness prevents the profile from becoming heavy or cloying - there is always enough acidity to keep things moving. The finish is moderately long with lingering dark-berry warmth. Winner of the Top Prize in fruit wine at the 2018 Korea Traditional Liquor Awards, this is a competition-validated sweet wine of genuine quality. Serve at 8-12°C with hoe where the unexpected sweet-savory contrast opens new flavor dimensions, alongside creamy cheese where the berry richness matches fat, or with dark chocolate desserts where the wild grape intensity amplifies bitter-sweet notes.
