My mother in law knows my love of Red Wine
And regularly brings me a bottle. Unfortunatly its 8% bollocks that tastes like shit in a glass.

The shame comes from me putting it in a pint glass and downing it instead of wasting it.

Can't your missus have a quiet word?

Hmmm herein lies the problem
Mother in Law is bringing me the wine because she knows that the missus severely restricts my alcohol consumption and in doing so makes the alcohol all the more needed. She is bringing it to me in a "Here you go Son, don't tell the wife" situation so to appear ungrateful would be wrong and to tell the wife would incur her wrath. Best to hold you nose and down it.

Ah. 'Grin and bear it' it is then.

Isn't there a minimum alcohol % before it can even be classed as wine?

I would imagine it's about 8%.
This was deemed to be 'wine-based drink' according to the bottle.
