The smell is very fruity and quite like cherryade, but not obviously fake in the way that cherryade can be. The taste is sweet, but having been in the vineyard at harvest and tasted the grapes as they are picked, that sweet smell and taste is right on the button. The aftertaste is pleasantly dry, almost like cranberry. Sorry, this seems like I'm comparing it to every red fruit available. I like it, but I'd find the white a lot more useful to have in. In its favour, it is a pure and realistic flavour. Some ready-made drinks can be quite scary, with odd flavours that seem more suitable to bath products. This tastes like squashed grapes. My kids would like it, if I gave them the chance. Will just finish this glass and then hide the bottle behind something in the fridge, so I can have another glass later.
