Meer-Secco Perlwein Weiss (Germany)

Nose:  Citrus and bananas, together at last.  Maybe a little bit of pear as well.

Taste:  Medium-dry and citrus fruity, in a 'multivitamin banana' way.

Finish:  Slight sour aftertaste

What we say:  S - "It smells weird.  Like cough syrup... no, like that banana flavoured medicine you'd get from the doctor when you were ill - but just a touch of it, not to the point that I'm instantaneously disgusted with it."  "I think it almost tastes like Flintstones multivitamins, but not necessarily in a bad way"  V- "It's sort of refreshing and interesting, and the vitamin overtones makes you think it's healthy."

What they say:  Nuttin'

Rating:  5.5 (S - 5; V - 6)

Price:  €6.79

Le Dolci Colline Prosecco (Italy)

Nose:  Light, vaguely citrusy and sweet.  Fresh.

Taste:  Citrusy in initial flavour.  Medium-dry.  A bit of bitterness to it, like lemon rind.

Finish:  Minerally, with baked lemon rind.

What we say:  L - 'It smells like pee, but just my pee, because I pee Prosecco.'  V - 'Is there liquorice in the smell?'  L&V - 'No!'

What they say:  Oodles of apple and peach on the nose and an interesting soft finish.

Rating:  7
