 Hello! NJRoot22.com here again with a little cheap wine reviews and this week it's an interesting rare kind of review. I wonder if you can figure out how to say that. I'm not using a good camera I just want to remind you. This is called... you might want to say baica or baesia or baica. I looked online I mean I was right when I called it baica baica baica. I'll put a little clip in from a real Spanish person so you can see baica. This is a Spanish wine that the other wine drinker in our house came home the other day raving about it. Oh they have it at buy right somewhere in Jersey somewhere I think north of 22 and it's a $40 bottle of wine it was $19 and then it was half price it was $10 and it's become the hit wine of the week here. I'll do a little... here's the commercial from from the baica vineyards in Spain you take a look at it it's a minute long okay now we're back from that commercial let me let me take a sip mmm that wasn't a very good my next sip I'll take a better sip anyway as I've said in the past the wine industry is bizarre because it's all about reputation and and and the information you get before you even drink it I I opened this bottle up and I tasted it without reading anything about it I did the reading afterward I think it's okay tasting and this is this is 6.5 ounce serving number two mixed with eight ounces of water and whatever water-melt comes from the ice that's how I drink the wine so I get four glasses per bottle just pretty much almost like every other person drinks but I water it down so I can drink a lot of it but I'm gonna taste it right now I hate doing this I honest the guy everybody's taste is subjective but I'm gonna taste a little bit I've had the bottle open for about an hour or so so it's breathing all this other stupid crap they teach you but I'll take a sip no that wasn't like a bad reaction that was just me I wasn't ready for the strong full I'm not used to full strength wine oh my god anyway this does have a tart beginning they want to call I call it tart other people call it let me read the review this is from wine enthusiast magazine I printed it out this is old school no computer going on here except for the camera and the editing and the clips I include in the music and the graphics also the garbage that you need to make a video these days but here these reviews it's a two sentence there are three sentence review the Baica 2015 barricado barricado barricado organic monastrel jumella was it do me I don't know who cares I can spell it anyway here's their quote intense aromas inky leathery black fruits announced a full saturated palate that's bolstered by tartaric acidity who speaks like that intense aromas ink I've never eaten ink and I've never eaten leather and I guess leather is is referring to the texture of it doesn't taste like leather doesn't fit I've eaten my belt before it doesn't taste like a belt me why do we have to think about it you know what I guess it's okay you know it doesn't burn my throat it's it's not it's not hobo wine I've had hobo wine but I guess they all breathe but I don't drink it full straight the other wine drinker in the house likes it a lot big fan because but anyway I did a quick this wine spectator magazine you're not gonna read it because I'm using a substandard 10 year old DSLR and and it's nowhere as good that Sony I mentioned last week was amazing it was like broadcast quality 4k and all that other stuff it was just I would like to get it if anybody wants to donate because I can't afford it right now anybody wants to donate I mean maybe I should get a patreon account or some PayPal account so people can donate to this channel it would be nice but this it scored 90 points whatever that means somebody named it gave it a number and they said price $38 you're not gonna be able to see that it says 38 bucks and the receipt from Bottle King this was in Chatham, New Jersey calls the bike a barricado barricado jumila jumila it said so the $40 price that they said in the store was just like marketing it says regular price $24.99 and it's on sale for $10.98 a quick internet search just so you know did it pretty much came up almost exclusive buy right so I think buy right has has the the dibs on this and like every winery and God knows the pipe the same bottle of wine with different labels and it could be it could be that there's only two bottles of wine in the world and they just put different freaking bottles and maybe put drop of something in it to make it taste slightly different imagine that racket that people would be so angry they'd start bootlegging stuff at home and just make drinking like rubbing alcohol because how these people get their own the corner of the market I don't know it makes me anyway the finished the finish this review here the next sentence is plum blackberry raw oak raw oak and salty flavors are chocolatey on finish me I can't ever imagine ever speaking like this it's grapes there's no plums there's no blackberries maybe the oak from the barrel salt and chocolate drink through 2019 what does that mean like one bottle is going to last it for the next year or that by it goes bad in 2019 amounts in the expiration date on it anyway it's a 14% which is good and by the way it's not a $10 bottle it's 1098 per bottle which is it's right on that cusp of being in the cheap wine reviews but because it was so heavily discounted I'm including it as like a sort of a special review and I thought it was gonna have this like like like award-winning taste this crazy this crazy wow it's wine it's wine I mean I'm gonna take another massive sip here let's let's try it you know frankly it's inoffensive doesn't taste bad but I think I get a better off factor from some of the cheaper wines so like the like the 599 Explorer door I think is actually more refreshing from a practical standpoint I don't sit there and analyze every sip of wine I take I don't pair it with anything I just drink it and try to enjoy it and in case you're new to this review series we we we like good value we like a decent alcohol contents we want to get a nice buzz we drink two bottles to test and I rate how I feel in the morning or during the day next day like I've had wines that were similarly priced and similarly potent in alcohol content were actually felt really awful the next day so I guess my way of reviewing isn't this this this imaginary flavor you have in your mind it's it's how I've actually physically really feel there's no putting an an adjective on how I feel I mean I suppose I could I could come up with a no a new review system I felt like a like a rotten log on the side of the highway after a three days in the hot sun with a couple slugs on my on my leg I mean I mean can I be as creative with rating the hangover can the hangovers have as many different descriptors inky and leathery black fruits what's a black fruit in the last black fruit I have was rotten I mean geez Louise we had something in the fridge there it was it took on a new identity I mean I this I find fascinating and the number of people the limited number of people that are kind of like poking fun at it and and and sort of you know it's a little bit of a mockery that how at this industry and I've said this in my previous reviews that it's like some sort of pecking water this is societal pecking water where people you know they schmooze and they and they say nice things about each other and obviously gifts are exchanged in return and people get free stuff and and they create this like almost private walled industry where ordinary people like me who have a completely different way of enjoying a beverage I don't have to enjoy your way or like I'm drinking with ice you how many people I've met in my life in ordinary life not wine professionals but just friends or acquaintances or other party goers at a party we've been to where they look at me when I drink my wine like I'm a substandard human being and that to me is a bunch of crap because I do what I want and just because you follow the rules and you've been sucked along into this mystery tour of what a real what wine is about I mean I think it's all contrived invented and and and completely fabricated just for the benefit of a few and I mean call me a conspiracy theorist but again the wine is subjective I can go on and on I'm I've already gone like 11 minutes on the first segment this is me another half-hour review I don't give a crap I mean this is me stream of thought and this is real this is this is more people should should have this mindset now it maybe in the end I will say that this $11 plus tax almost $12 bottle of wine that was subjectively once priced at $25 or subjectively once priced at $38 according to this wine enthusiast no wine through this means I like just BSing about wine I'm not BSing about anything here God knows I might feel like a million dollars no I might feel hey I might feel like complete fecal stuff I don't try not to curse on this channel because go flaggy or something but I'll take another step and this is again six and a half ounces of wine eight ounces of water and the rest ice and that's how I enjoy my wine it's I drink fast I have a huge huge throat volume I can handle a lot of traffic I can drink like five gallons of water a day I seriously I have well that was a big giant gulp of raw oak that's easy I mean I'll come back halfway through the second bottle this bottle hasn't been tapped yet or corked and I'm gonna have another I'm only halfway done with bottle number one again I'm not really there's nothing impressing me here in fact watered down I think some of the cheaper wines are better they have more they have more lingering effects this I almost feel like I drank um even the even the what do you call it the straight-on wasn't wasn't all that great again I can't emphasize enough the subjectiveness of a wine versus and the need to even have this this flavor in your mouth I want to know how I feel tomorrow what kind of buzz am I happy by the way I just want to real quick side note we're going to getting into 13 minutes here oh I perked the side note is that I've noticed that there's different kind of buzzes from different kinds of alcohol and next week next Monday I'm gonna do a special review on spike seltzers you need to hear this it's it's it's you're never gonna hear a review like this before and it's gonna it's gonna completely blow away what everybody else says about it it's unique and one-of-a-kind maybe five people have heard it and they were only bystanders in the store when I expressed this sick feeling you get when you drink a seltzer spiked seltzers but anyway I lost my train of thought we're gonna come back for another take after maybe another bottle I'm gonna consume one two three four more glasses of this maybe what time is it now I God knows it's like midnight I think it's like midnight I'll probably be back like 1 or 1 30 or so so that's it I hope you enjoy my rambling and it makes sense because none of this other crap makes sense the goal is to find like as close to a $5 bottle as possible for like a few months or close to a year and stick with it that's why I like to explore a door 599 a bottle and I'm mad that the Rex Goliath free range red got ruined by going from 13.5 to 13% that's it I ramble a lot but and I'm not editing anything if you know if you don't like what I have to say maybe I should do a live stream and then we can have some fun fun discussions but I'll be back in okay njroot22.com back at 1 a.m. this is the next glass glass one of this bias by whatever can't figure out how to pronounce it by car so this is the greatest thing about filming why you're drinking because you can't really control your behavior and that you can try but it will never work because like the truth will always come out and this is what I love about it the truth always comes out whether you're like inebriated or you're like slurring your words or whatever it may be alcohol is such a truth teller you know it's like like people always tell their deepest secrets when they're when they're drinking oh man I'm bummed about this oh I did I did this nefarious thing or I risk secretly like this person like there's no boundaries when you when you drink like obviously here like I have the ability to edit my video and I've never actually said anything even on an unedited or a cut piece of video that I really didn't want to say because I'm strong like that I'm never going to just say oh yeah wow I dot dot dot fill in the blank I'm not like that and and two bottles of shit wine it doesn't really yeah yeah ready it's time for uh I don't know we're like 20 minutes into this video I want to see if it's refreshing it's it's uninspired I get better from uh from other uh other wines this baica baica who the hell knows what it's called baica which is called baica we only like the new um what was that rap group from the 90s uh nwo no who who what's it whatever I have one and a half glasses to go I'm gonna finish the two bottles and I'm gonna go to sleep and tomorrow morning I'm going to report on how I feel and I'm very today I have to tell you I was extremely prolifically in tune with with how how to drink this I didn't I drank an entire glass like like a half glass and another half glass sample full strength and I drank like eight or 10 ounces of water right afterward just just to make sure that I didn't like I taint the review sample this is like like a lab sample you know I don't know when you think about it a bottle or two of wine is what what is it I mean are you trying to have an experience experience or you just want to have like a like a like a like a like a physical transformation what what do you want when you buy or think about a bottle of wine I don't know I mean my guess is that most people just want to get a freaking buzz but yet society has transformed them into thinking oh let's bring a bottle of wine da da da it it brings like a like a bottle of sophistication into their endeavor whether it's a freaking cocktail party card game art gallery the wine is for a buzz don't be so freaking like lame about it and deny it you're not bringing it because you're sophisticated you're bringing it because you want to have a buzz and I think that most people just because this alcohol was invented somehow god knows I haven't even like even dug into like the whole history of of alcohol and like where it came from and how many cavemen did it like our history before the printing press is a little bit sketchy you know what I mean like you have like hieroglyphics and crap and in various parts of the world but but I think some sort of like this connection from society has always played a role like whenever someone discovered some sort of like uh like mind-altering plant or drug or whatever like drug don't get me sorry about drugs drugs are drugs are bad like the actual chemically altered drugs I mean like alcohol is a drug in its own sense let's do another sip let's see if it tastes good no no something about this this once $40 bottle of wine it doesn't give me the I'm going to finish this this glass and pour myself one more I'm gonna kick kick the second bottle and then go to sleep hey this is the next day after this uh bayica wine I drank two bottles of last night I'm a little rough around the edges but I have to say I guess you can you can say that it it passed the test if I feel like any worse later or something hits me like a brick I'll mention it in the in the comment or whatever but I think it passed the test but I'm not I don't think I'm going to buy it again I'm going to stick to my cheaper stuff all right
