There is a very very old way (c18 something) to make red wine from wine grapes, because the elderberry colour is sooooo strong. When red wine was imported from the continent , cunning London wine dealers would also make an elderberry and local white grape wine and pass it off as the more expensive red - me thinks to people with a the less discerning palate.
