Enjoy the wine Principato Rosato but can only get it at an olive garden restaurant-not sold to consumers or merchants. Its a Semi-sweet, light-bodied, with a fresh fruit taste and is Made from a blend of Merlot, Enatio, and Schiava grapes. I AM LOOKING FOR WINES TO TRY WITH THE SAME TASTE - AM WILLING TO TRY OTHER WINES ON A MORE SWEETER TASTE. Thank you.

Hi Rcarkin, and welcome to the Wine Board. The wine you are talking about is the house pour. Glad you like it; I find it cloyingly mellifuous. Try a Reunite Lambrusco. Don't buy a less expensive one. If you like it, look for better (more expensive) ones.

RC, "rosato" is an Italian rose'. Look for one in the Italian section of any large wineshop.

yeah, but rosato can also mean a dry rose; if you like the sweet style, follow IK's advice.
