One reviewer wrote: "Very sweet and tasting of strawberries. Extremely easy to drink as it's more of a squash than a wine. At the price can't complain." Mild and tasty wine with ripe fruit flavours of raspberry, cherry and plums. Smokey oak. Drink with red meat dishes, italian foods or spicy dishes. The Wine List Merlot Winemaker's notes: "Crispy, leafy mint and mouthwatering lemon freshness dominate the nose and palate and are complimented by subtle traces of ripe stone fruits." This alcohol free wine is produced by centrifuging merlot wine which removes the alcohol. But then unfermented juice is then added make it more wine-like. The result is a fruity, drink that is not quite like wine but still pleasant as a drink in its own right. For those that like the taste of alcohol, it will be missing. Gallo Family Vineyards Merlot

ASDA red wines ASDA wines cabernet chauvignon Cabernet Chauvignon Barefoot Cabernet Sauvignon One reviewer wrote: "Smells mineral and pine-y. Tastes of honeydew melon, apples and green olives. Ultra dry. It sounds odd, but I think this could work really well with a curry. It's a little hard to drink on its own." One reviewer wrote: "A decent bottle of wine for the price – full of flavour and definitely one to buy again!" This is a quarter sized bottle of the above.
