DRINK OF THE WEEK
22nd July 2024
The Best Garganega/Pinot Grigio Rosé
Morrisons £7.75 (on offer this week)
Drinker Rating 90
The rise and rise of rosé - sales continue to climb and now not only in the summer but right across the year. You might be aware that I'm on a bit of a crusade on the pink stuff, simply because it need not be expensive - I would go as far as to say if you pay more than £9 for a bottle you are very much a silly sausage.
Winemakers really don't take rosé seriously, apart from the very top end Tavel producers, and then it's massively overrated for quite mediocre and expensive wine.
Instead I recommend finding some bottles like this week's pick, simple, pretty, straightforward and perfectly acceptable.
Cheers!
