Rossi Sweet Red rocks
MANILA, Philippines - It isn’t always the big things that make your world rock. Every little milestone, every little leap is more than enough to be happy, thankful, and celebrate.
All these little things put together make up life’s happiness. Since each success, no matter how grand or small, is worthy of a celebration, there’s a reason to cheer for good times every day.
Acknowledging the importance of happiness, success, and celebrations, a local distiller brings a sweet red wine that perfectly fits the Filipino’s preference for wine in terms of taste and affordability.
“From Carlo Rossi, the No. 1 imported wine, we have something that is best suited to the Pinoy’s sweet tooth and lifestyle,†says Von de Torres, managing director of Emperador Distillers.
De Torres is referring to Rossi Sweet Red, a sweet red wine crafted from grapes grown in California’s sun-drenched vineyards. It is described to be deliciously sweet — it has layers of vanilla, bright cherry and wild raspberry flavors — with the right alcohol content. It is proving to be a wine that is best suited for the Filipino palate.
With a different kind of sweetness, Rossi Sweet Red, De Torres says, is ideal for any kind of occasion. “Some of us may fear the thought of correctly pairing wine with food. There are wines that have particular requirements for taste blends in dishes to bring out the best in both wine and the food. But for Rossi Sweet Red, pairing is not a problem. It can go perfectly well with everything.â€
What makes Rossi Sweet Red even more interesting is that it can be enjoyed “on the rocks.â€
De Torres said having Rossi Sweet Red on ice is the best way to experience it, as the ice brings out the flavor, without compromising the taste even when it melts, while allowing for a smoother finish. “It is not something that we are suggesting just for the novelty; the wine works well with ice, too.â€
