woolybanana Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 If you are buyng rosé wine, be careful to read the label very attentively or take advice as there has been a new case of cheap Spanish rosé being sold as French it actually costs about 50% less to produce.It may, of course, be just as good but French it aint, though it may still be changing nationalities late at night as it crosses some obscure frontier.
