If you like rose than treat yourself to something better like Sofia. Drinking this with grilled salmon tonight. I agree with their market BS below.

Wxmans poop story reminded me of a baby pee story my dad told me. Infant Boxstercy apparently did an Old Faithful geyser like vertical pee job right in my grandfathers face. My dad was initially appalled as Grandpa Floyd wasn't known for his cool. He was relieved when the old dude just LOL'd.

Rose wines are a little too sweet for me. I've tried other light wines...I prefer the Beringer. I'm kind of lazy that way. If I have something I like, I stick with it.
OK, not a wine guy, but as a beer guy, this reminds me of the "I don't like dark beers" comment. It used to annoy me, then I stopped being a snob and use it now as an opener for the 'although there are tendencies, color has nothing to do with taste, what don't you like about the dark beers you've tried?' discussion. Handing someone who 'doesn't like dark beer' a Schwarzbier is a sight to behold when they finally taste it.
Not sure what any of this has to do with beer but I don't like sweet beers either, like Blue Moon stuff. Not a beer snob at all. Will drink Guinness, Summit Pale Ale and a Mich Light.
Same reason I don't drink much soda, eat cereal with sugar and like oatmeal cookies better than sugar cookies.

Speaking of wine my aunt and uncle are wine snobs and brought over a bottle a few weeks ago. I suppose I should open that up some night.
The only time I've been able to stomach a Guiness is when really wasted with a Norwegian chick practically dry humping me at the bar. Other than that, not once in my life have I ever enjoyed them.
Just the lumping of wines or beers into categories based on their color..."I don't like Roses" reminded me of people who 'don't like dark beers'.
wxman, feel your pain. My oldest shot his poop on the best dress I had that I could squeeze into right before the baptism.

Guys. My future wife has a snap chat. And her name is Christina. Christina Rocksmypants has a nice ring to it.
random thought: Mozambique is the only country whose national flag features a machine gun....
Since the color comes from the tannin in the grape skins (more contact with skins = more color = different flavor), the color CAN indicate a type of "flavor" in wines...and the ability to chill them (or not).
I'm not a wine snob, but there IS a general difference in the taste of wines based on whether they are red, white, or rose/blush.
And I'm definitely not a beer snob. I don't like many of the strongly flavored beers. Don't really care what color they are.
