!!!

Like many a colonised country, this wine is the bastard mongrel bitch mother whore daddy sister of many gang raping viking grapes. Lord knows how such a mix up was arrived at, I'm thinking a bottom of the vat tourist sell off here, so I'm very suspicious.

Smell

• Dusty old bookshelves in a 16th century library
• Vanilla impregnated slippers
• BOOOZE!

Taste

• 9 volt battery terminals, with light blueberry and mulled orange peel

Whippets factor

• 7/10, sinus scorching booze clouds

Winey giggles

• 6 minutes after first swig

A delicious light gulping wine I would absolutely drink again, once my liver is a little less inflamed
