Decline in rosé availability?

[dananne]

Pickings in Atlanta seem slimmer this summer, too. While the last few years it was relatively easy to find interesting, smaller-producer rose wines, this year you tend to only see the large, mass-produced stuff. So, we're still getting, say, the Guigal CdR rose or the Muga rose, but all the smaller stuff you find is leftover stuff from '05, '06 -- even some '04 roses left. Perhaps it's a supply and demand thing -- in this economy, maybe selling little-known dry roses is more difficult, so they've stopped bringing them into this market. Glad to hear Bob's store is still carrying stuff. It's hard to educate the American public on dry rose when there are few available.
