9d elderberry wine - now this is a very odd clue as the anagram of brewer line + der (rouge turning up) is clear. But surely not 'blanc'? Elderberry is a very deep red wine.

Hi ratslice.
It took some finding, but it does exist.

Good morning to you all and many thanks.

Hi Shooty,

What does exist? As far as I'm aware elderberry wine is always red (or possibly rose). Elderflower is a white.

Hi Shooty - I found your link. White elderberries - a bit obscure. Surely they remain 'likely' to be red? A bit misleading I think.

I totally agree with you ratslice.
Very misleading.

But in the Link under apllications. White wines is there.
So it has to stand.
