Hi Josh, welcome to the board! These wines don't come with years, and in fact are more akin to alcohol mixed with grape juice than wine. In fact, they may be just that. I can't tell you anything specific about the Flambeau, but I had many very small glasses of Manichewitz at Passover Seders as a kid. I find it sickly sweet and it doesn't really taste very good to me these days. There are lots of inexpensive wines with wide distribution posted on this board, especially in the Novice and Steal Deals forums. Enjoy!
