Our take
What we make of this bottle
XXL Blackberry is a flavored wine, not a single grape wine in the usual sense. The producer's own product page describes it as made from moscato grapes and natural fruit extracts, a full bodied, sweet style built around blackberry flavor. The label settles the flavor and the alcohol, 16 percent; it does not settle where the wine is made, since no country of origin appears anywhere on Drink XXL's own page for this bottle.
Drink XXL's page lists aromas of blackberry jam, cherry in chocolate and blackcurrant, and gives a few vineyard level numbers: the moscato grapes were hand harvested in October at a yield of 3.85 tons per acre, grown in a soil the producer describes as 40 percent clay-sandy and 60 percent black, with a finished acidity of 5.6 grams per litre. The brand positions itself around casual, strong, sweet drinking, with a tagline reading 'crafted carefully so you can party carefree.'
Independent retailer listings place the XXL brand's origin in Moldova, but that fact never appears on the producer's own page for this bottle, so we treat it as corroborated elsewhere rather than confirmed at the source. Drink XXL's site has no About or brand history page anywhere in its sitemap, and no independent critic review of this bottle turned up in our research.
So far 5 shoppers have rated it, averaging 3.4 out of five. In our August 2026 checks the bottle ranged from $10.99 to $15.99 across nine stores.
Our call: a reasonable low cost pick for a party if the sweet, strong blackberry style Drink XXL describes is what you want; the producer states the 16 percent alcohol and the blackberry jam and blackcurrant flavor plainly, and the October harvest and yield are on record too. Pass if you want the country of origin confirmed at the source or any independent review to lean on; the producer's own page never states where the wine is made, and Drink XXL has no brand history page or outside critic coverage we could find.
