106. The Ned

This wine was a worry. In Scotland a Ned is a “Non-Educated Delinquent” and a catch all phrase to describe teenage yobs that hang around on street corners drinking alcohol and causing trouble. Their favourite tipple is “Buckfast” – a fortified red wine made in the south of England by Benedictine Monks full of alcohol, caffine and badness – and I worried that this was a white version of it.

I actually bought it for Isla for a laugh more than for the experience of drinking it but surprisingly it was very palatable. Very zesty and a bit to easy going down – the bottle lasted about 30 mins.
