Description

SSOA-Grape is a 5% ABV fruit wine from Gyeonggi-do made with domestically grown grapes as the sole ingredient. The ultra-low ABV and the 355ml can-like format (similar to a standard beer can) suggest a product designed for casual, spontaneous consumption rather than deliberate wine-drinking occasions. Korean table grapes - typically Kyoho or Campbell Early varieties - tend toward higher sugar content and a more pronounced Concord-grape aromatic profile (foxy, musky, candy-like) compared to classic European wine grapes. This varietal character defines SSOA-Grape's personality: vivid grape-candy aromatics front and center, with enough residual sweetness to appeal to drinkers who find traditional wines too dry or tannic. The 2014 Korea Traditional Liquor Awards Grand Prize (대상) - the highest honor in the competition - validates this approach as a legitimate and well-executed expression within the Korean traditional drink category.
