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.

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. Founded in 2012, 19 Crimes is nestled under the massive wine company known as Treasury Wine Estates. ( Treasury Wine Estates is also the parent company of brands like Beringer, Rosemount Estate, Sterling, and Stag’s Leap, so when I say “massive,” I really mean it.) They’re widely available; you can get ‘em at Trader Joe’s, various grocery store chains, and a huge number of liquor and wine stores, as well as from 19 Crimes’ online store. The Uprising” wine has an intriguing taste and history lesson attached to it. A portion of this red blend is aged for 30 days in rum barrels for a taste that is jammy and smoky.

For its first stride into California wine, 19 Crimes partnered with Snoop Dogg to release Snoop Cali Red, A red blend made from 65 percent petite Syrah, 30 percent Zinfandel, and 5 percent Merlot, all sourced from California. Following the red blend, 19 Crimes released Snoop Cali Rosé in summer 2021. Given the popularity of both wines, it’s safe to say that the 19 Crimes/Snoop Dogg partnership will be releasing many more wines in the future.

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. As a value brand, it is also to be expected that this wine is not going to be extremely complex, or necessarily impressive to well-tuned palettes.Crimes’ first release is arguably still its best and most popular bottle.

Each bottle and its character are essentially able to come to life through a connected app and augmented reality. If you’re looking for something unlike anything you’ve had before, you probably won’t find it in a 19 Crimes bottle.
