Ohhh memories. Growing up in my small southern town, I always marked the holiday season when my francophile (& practically a teetotaller) mother would purchase several bottles to serve through the New Year.

This was back when parents let children have a taste of an alcoholic beverage. I still remember it being fruity and like an adult Welch's grape juice (this was my kiddie perspective).

I wonder if my mother will buy some this season. I will have to ask her. Alas, I am a teetotaller (changed religions) but what a wonderful memory, thanks.
