Internet Wine Retailers Rose d’Anjou
Among the popularity of red wine and white wine – and the tendency among many of us to favor one over the other for a glass every once in a while – there is often little room left in people’s consideration for the rosé wine. In some people’s estimation, a rosé is little more than a cop-out option, neither one thing nor the other. As it is often made from the same grapes used for red wine, but with the skins removed at a key point in the process, it is even viewed by many as a substitute red wine, not really something to be bothered with. This is actually a colossal shame, for Rosé can be a very enjoyable drinking experience if one lays aside the wine snob goggles for a while.
One of the most popular rosé wines among those who recognise the value of a good rosé is also one of the more affordable wines on the market at the moment. For those of us who envisage cheap wine as being roughly consistent in terms of taste with battery acid or cheap fruit juice, there are definitely a few bottles out there that give the lie to that way of looking at things. Rosé d’Anjou, especially affordable when bought from Internet retailers, is one of those. It manages to crush two myths in one, which is impressive. First of all, that old saw that would have you believe that cheap wine is bad wine. Some affordable bottles (if we are to take $10 as the top price for a lower-market wine) are actually really drinkable and even surprising.
What is all the more surprising is that from Internet retailers Rosé d’Anjou can come in at just under $5 a bottle. Given that people will pay well over ten dollars for a comparable drink, this is amazing. In blind taste tests, many people have put this bottle at three or four times as expensive as it actually happens to be. And when you consider that you can end up spending north of $10 on a wine that you end up not liking, Rosé d’Anjou is a wine that you really ought to try if you are just looking for a bottle of something to enjoy with a meal and a film.
The other myth that Rosé d’Anjou effectively shatters is that rosé wine is really not worth bothering with. Sure, we all have our favorites. Some like red, some like white. But with hints of both and a little something all of its own in there, Rosé d’Anjou is something that everyone can enjoy. Sure, for specific tastes you will want to be looking out for more specific wines, and a bottle of Rosé d’Anjou is not your solution if you want something to use in cooking or to accompany a steak dinner. But if you are looking to spend less than ten dollars and get something that doesn’t taste like rainwater, Rose d’Anjou may very well be the wine for you.
