Can anyone suggest one? (not expensive) A lot of them emphasise that they are full of strawberry/berry flavours and they are so sweet. There's a Portuguese rose I buy from Morrisons that's not bad (not Mateus Rose!)

Sorry Sqwerty, I'm a full bodied red girl! Could you try a splash of soda to water the sweetness down a bit?

Not expensive? .....
I think we could be here all day,it is all about taste, but you need to be more precise on the money side.

I discovered a rosé called Grey Fox, which I found to be very palatable last summer. Sainsbury's sells it for £4.50. While I don't like a tart rosé I don't like one too sweet either. This was perfect.  |

This was perfect. Thank you, cake - I don't like them too tart either. I will have a look out for that one, next time I go to a Sainsbury's. |

Fingers crossed you like it sqwerty. I tend to only drink it in the summer, but I've noticed it's still on the shelves.

On the iPad when you type e, keep it pressed down and a selection box pops up. Keep pressing down and slide towards your choice. è. ê

This was perfect. How do you get the accent on rose, by the way? I do it differently to Marion. When I'm ready to hit the 'e' I press the 'alt gr' key at the same time (just to the right of the space bar) and you get the 'é' |

I'm not a huge fan of rosé but had a holiday some years ago in the Cevennes (Don Quixote country in the far south east of France) where rosé is the principal wine produced. I'd suggest giving some of those a go. Of course if you can drink them there, that's even better!

This was perfect. Hi Cake, it's been a while since my post, but I finally visited a Sainsbury's today and bought a bottle, so looking forward to trying it later. |

I hope you enjoy it sqwerty. I bought a couple at the weekend (they were doing their 25% off deal when you buy 6 bottles). Thought I'd make the most of it.  |

Anymore to come?
