taste of rust

Irony.

I was tempted to buy this bottle to find out if the title referred to the flavour. The flavour of a rusty implement such as a gardening trowel.  Maybe this wine will bring back memories of pre-ambulatory childhood.

Maybe the name refers to the wine’s humour or wit.  I wonder what ironic humour tastes like? 

Whatever the reason for the name,  it caught my eye and nearly sold me a bottle that I wouldn’t have looked at twice otherwise.  Nice work by the marketing team…..
