This is a
bottle of Rose d'Anjou from one of the big 2 supermarkets. I have seen it
before and not given it a thought. It was when I found out that Rose d'Anjou is
the main appellation in which you find the Grolleau grape that I began to take
notice. I know I had had Cabernet d'Anjou before and as its name implied, that
Loire rose was made from Cabernet (Sauvignon or Franc). I wasn't sure which
rose (Cabernet or Grolleau) they had in the supermarket, but was delighted to
find this on the shelves. Who says the big supermarkets (and I don't count
Marks & Spencer amongst them) are unadventurous? The Amorghiano red from
Rhodes was from another one. In the supermarket above, I also found a Gros
Manseng Sauvignon Blanc blend too!
