About this deal

Crimes’ first release is arguably still its best and most popular bottle. Th e Cabernet Sauvignon is a delicious, easy-to-drink, full-bodied red with all the classic juiciness and dark red fruit flavors you expect in a good Cabernet.

What you get inside the bottle is a great value as well. The wines are grown in the prime regions of viniculture in Australia, primarily the South and the area known as Victoria. The cool, coastal climate in Victoria lends itself well to Pinot Noir, a soft, light grape, while the heat of the South produces rich, plump Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon. However, the classics will always be the best bet, in my opinion. The Cabernet Sauvignon is rich, smooth, and just what you want in a dark red that you can sip throughout the night. It pairs well with anything from steak to chocolate cake but can stand on its own as well. The brand relies heavily on the clever marketing tactics of its augmented reality app and collectible corks to drive sales, and it certainly allows their bottles to stand out on the shelf. If you’re looking for an affordable, easy-to-drink, fun bottle of wine, this is the brand for you. The majority of the wines, aside from the brand’s collaborations with Snoop Dogg, are made with grapes sourced from Australia. These grapes include Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, and Pinot Noir.They say never judge a bottle of wine by its label, but in the case of 19 Crimes, the wrapping carries a unique bit of history you won’t want to miss. If you’re looking for something unlike anything you’ve had before, you probably won’t find it in a 19 Crimes bottle. Recommendations

It also certainly doesn’t hurt that each bottle comes with a fun little tidbit of history, and the opportunity to hear from the characters themselves via the 19 Crimes app. It’s a wonderful way for novice wine collectors to explore the fun of trying each bottle and gathering all 19 corks. According to u/Brassafax, they’d never encountered the specific list used by 19 Crimes in their marketing materials before; however, they did note, “It is true that throughout 1760-1820, a variety of lists were published dubbed ‘ Crimes denominated single felonies; punishable by transportation, whipping, imprisonment, the pillory, and hard labour in houses of corrections, according to the nature of the offence.” What’s more, these lists did generally include roughly 20 offences, give or take a few depending on the list; it’s therefore possible that one does exist somewhere with the version 19 Crimes uses for their brand identity.

A mobile app allows the bottles to really come alive.

Crimes is a small collection with only eight different products, and they have fine-tuned each one to be a quality wine that meets the standards of the one before.
