Hey guys, and welcome back to another post in my rose review series! I’m really excited about this one because Jackson Triggs is an extremely accessible wine brand here in Canada, and is Canadian! Also, the Proprietor’s Reserve Rose is a super affordable bottle of rose and I’m so excited to say that I really, really liked this bottle and was so impressed for the price.
So, this rose is about as sweet as I like to go on wine (medium), but it had some acidity to it that kept it from being too cloyingly sweet in my mind. It was easy drinking, not so complex that you can’t have a snack of any type with it (I may or may not have had olives, sausage and cheddar while drinking this and found it to be a just fine accompaniment). I found it to have very berry-based fruit notes and a hint of cherries. While it is decently sweet, the acidity keeps the finish light and it doesn’t linger. It doesn’t hurt that this wine is the prettiest shade of pink, either!
In terms of a budget rose, I’d say this was definitely my favorite thus far. It’s affordable enough you could make sangria with it without feeling guilty, but balanced and tasty enough that you can enjoy it chilled on a weeknight. At approximately $12 per bottle, you can enjoy this one on a budget or with friends!
