I've honestly never tasted rose wine before, I stick to red as I love it, I hate all white wines :yuck: I'll maybe try one of the rose wines recommended here over the holidays though.

It may sound crap, but Sainsbury's own brand of rose (£3 a bottle) is the easiest drinking rose I have tasted.

It's like pop.

I did 3 bottles of it at my Mum's last weekend. It's soooo nice you can drink it in pints!

My head was ok the next day, too

No not really, I just avoid overly commercialised products. Wolf Blass is in the same boat

Not tasted gallo products for a while, but it used to be rank stuff
