Asda, the family favourite supermarket, continues to impress with its selection of quality wines at reasonable prices. The supermarket has recently launched its own version of the highly sought-after blush wine, Whispering Angel. Since its original launch in 2007, Whispering Angel has amassed a near cult-like following due to its signature pale hue, dry taste, and easy finish, reports the Mirror .
Recently I was lucky enough to sample Asda's take on this Provence rose, intriguingly named Screaming Devil . This wine promises to provide an exciting and potentially more affordable alternative to the premium brand. Keen to try it out, I poured myself a glass on a late summer evening.
Rosé is a refined type of wine that should delicately dance across your tastebuds like a 'whisper'. Despite the somewhat ominous connotations of the name on the label, this 'bargain' bottle is worth a shot for those who enjoy a good glass of pink. Currently retailing at Asda for £13 per bottle, it offers a decent saving compared to the Whispering Angel brand, which often sells for over £20 each.
According to Asda, Screaming Devil boasts "perfumed white peach, bright mango, and passion fruit aromas, along with some rhubarb notes on the nose". In terms of taste, it's described as having a "really lively vibrant palate, a fresh and saline structure, beautiful zesty length, with intense aromas." I eagerly sipped from my favourite wine glass, the beverage freshly chilled, appreciating its salmon pink .
