Winemaker here. I would like to try those wines, but I don't think you will get good results out of it.
Taste of wine is mostly structural thing: it is created during fermentation by polymerisation of different compounds. Even mixing different wines don't give you good results, unless you fiddle with different ratios (I do as much as 10 for cuvee of two wines, trying to find sweet spots) and then letting it settle for some time.
Well, it might be fun activity, but I am sceptical that you will create wine that you will actually like.
If I understood the article correctly, this machine will probably not create wine that you (dejv) will actually like, but may well succeed in doing so for the >99.9% of people who are not winemakers :-)
Well, I am sure given enough time I will likely find some ways to get good enough results out of it.
The quality of end product will be mostly determined by quality of base wines. But the problem is that wine is multidimensional => say you want sweeter wine for which they use Muscadet. This wine is not just sweet, you are also adding whole set of new tastes to the mix: there will be some acidity and different set of smell.
Will this taste good? I don't know, you might get lucky and find good recipe or you might mix some weird combination. The thing is that taking 100 ml of light body wine and 100 ml of heavy body wine will not give you 200 ml of medium body.
Anyway, I think they will get enough customers just for novelty of it and some wines might even taste good.
I would say the odds improve as you have more options. Worse case the ideal mix is 100% wine X. But, given a set of wines odds are some mix will end up being better.
