OK, as I have stated Wine Witch is a very democratic community and there are no rules about what is right or wrong in the wine you choose. If you like it – drink it! However, I am the head witch and pretty opinionated about what I like.
I have to confess that I am not a big fan of White Zin. To me it tastes a lot like wine cooler. It is pretty and very easy to drink, and for many it is their first introduction to the world of wine. A wine palate is developed over time. My husband and I thought we were pretty sophisticated when we used to drink Lancer’s Rose back in the day before White Zin was developed. We bought a bottle several months back for old times. It went down the drain. Our taste buds had moved on.
So if you are currently in your White Zin phase, and feel the need to break out a bit and experiment, where do you go? You can still keep it pink – actually rose. I love to drink rose in the summer time. The good ones taste of fresh strawberries or raspberries. Great to sip on their own and they go with all that picnic type food. The best ones come from Southern France, but the value ones come from the Southern Hemisphere – Australia, New Zealand, Argentina, and South Africa. I have rated a few that I like under the Wine Reviews section, so check them out.
Cheers!
