I don't think we have had that one but some wines do taste/smell of blackcurrant.

Cherry and strawberry flavours, about 24 euros in restaurants in France. Maybe it just isn't to your taste

Hi Annie, I googled and found this on a restaurant wine list, it's French as you said.



CLIQUE
GRENACHE SYRAH 2006 €24.00
Deep red in colour, cherry and strawberry flavours with a hint of spice nice soft finish


Also: have a read on this site, scroll down the page a bit and you will see a pic of the bottle, has a shoe on the label.

It might be good warmed up as cough mixture lol
