Sounds like Lillian Pinkham's (I think that was the name). I only heard of it as there was, IIRC, a novelty song that became a short-lived hit, about it, in the late 60's or 70's. Apparently, the stuff was about 50% alcoholic content.
Medicinal purposes indeed! <vbg>

Sanatogen Tonic Wine - A restorative tonic favoured by old people. I have no idea if it's still to be found in the old folks homes over in the UK (or anywhere else). Something my Gran and her sister would have on hand "for medicinal purposes only"
