I love sweet Rosé wine, and I am not afraid to admit it! Most people in the wine trade look down their noses at both Beringer Zinfandel Blush, Blossom Hill White Zinfandel and Rioja Rosado, CVNE but I can’t get enough of them, which is not necessarily a good thing!
I was always a Blossom Hill White Zinfandel when I first started drinking wine back in the good old days of University, yes I was a late developer into the wine world, and this one still holds a firm place in my heart. It got me over break ups, exam stress and interview stress and would always be turned to on a girly night in with my friends who are not wine connoisseurs.
However since beginning to work in the wine trade and the fact that my company doesn’t sell Blossom Hill White Zinfandel it caused me to turn to an alternative, and this was when my love affair with Beringer Zinfandel Blush and Rioja Rosado, CVNE started. I have since switched my attention to these wines as although yes the Beringer Zinfandel Blush it is still very sweet and could be described as sugar in a glass, it is more rounded than the Blossom Hill White Zinfandel, and the Rioja Rosado, CVNE is even more adult and should be tried by the Rosé snobs!
All three wines are scrummy and are perfect for the (hopefully approaching) summer with a BBQ or just sipping in the sun. Stock up, keep them in the fridge and then you will never be disappointed. I will warn you, they are very moreish and so you could find yourself drinking more than usual!
I’m not so much a fan on the sweet blush wines, but I see that they have their place. I have found that there is a big come back of the Dry Roses. I have tried a few and find those to be quite nice. I found them to be quite popular while I was visiting Australia. The beautiful thing about wine is that you can enjoy whatever you want. It’s all about your experiences and the memories you make. So if The sweet wines bring up good times, then let the good times roll!
