I saw this Vinography post called “Why Does American Rosé Suck?” and found it interesting. (Even if you don’t read that post, look at this excerpt- these two pics )
I had recently picked up some rosé but hadn’t had any yet because of the weather. I thought that if things turned around and it warmed up, I’d try some.
Well, the sun came out finally today. It’s been cold and foggy all week – but today’s been nice. So I took out a domestic and imported rosé to try.
I’ll come back and edit this post with some notes, but for now, here’s a quick pic of my own:
quick pic of an imported and domestic rosé
The domestic one is on the right, which is the “correct” color that Vinography prefers.
Notes soon.
Oh, btw, that Undone Pinot Noir on the right in my picture isn’t good. I only picked it up to try recently. I can’t recommend it at all.
I think I tracked down the best wine I ever had, which was about 7 years ago – 1996 Trevor Jones Cabernet/Merlot. I’m sort of afraid to buy another bottle of it, both because it was priced at $40/bottle, and what if I don’t like it anymore? I suggest that you try it instead and get back to me on that.
I’ll get right on that
you’re a good kid. I knew I could count on you.
