Has anybody here tried lower alcohol wines? [View all]

My brand is 8% alcohol instead of 13% (I think, not sure what full percent wine usually is). It makes a nice drink for folks who are older and don't want a lot of alcohol but love wine. I like a light white wine on warmer days and a heavier red on cool days.
