Zinfandel wine – a sweet taste of white wine
© michaelkmak
White zinfandel wine is a pale-rose wine colored having a very sweet taste. Zinfandel declined in popularity in the mid 1980's and became unprofitable to grow until "White Zinfandel" was introduced. It started gaining immense popularity since the 1980s, and sadly it is often looked down on by "real wine drinkers" because of its youth and sweetness. This is sad because each wine has its own place in the grand palate of flavors. White zinfandel is light and sweet. It is quite perfect in some situations like in hot summer day with a crisp fruit salad. It's also a great way for non-wine-drinkers to get used to the flavors in wine, without being put off by a heavily tannic monster wine. The grape grows best in cool, coastal locations. Zinfandel wine is always structured but can vary from dry to sweet and from a light to a heavier full-bodied red. The wine tends to exhibit a dark purple hue with hints of strawberry, plumb, raisin, spice, leather, and tar.
