Smells odd. Like plum and some sickly sweet fruity smells. Like dried fruits left out in the sun for too long. Not great. But it tastes much better. Mainly of plum, grapes and non-descript dried berries. Not much going on here. As a budget table wine this is acceptable & actually quite good. Though the additives didn't sit right with my stomach so I can only do two glasses of this stuff.

Solid mass produced all rounder, surprisingly good and often less than 5 GBP in shops.
