International blend wines is a category that includes wines made from juice from different countries. Examples include a few wines from Canada that contain Chilean wine, while there are also examples of American wines that contain Zinfandel from California with Amarone, a robust red from Italy's Veneto region- along with, believe it or not, blackberry juice. These wines are often novelties and are not too expensive, although there are exceptions.
