This is an incorrect description for White Zinfandel. It is in fact a rose wine. A blush is a lighter variety of rose, White Zinfandel tends to be dark, nearing a red wine. This should be changed as well. [1]As mentioned in the complete idiots guide to wine, among many other guides. 173.183.85.52 ( talk) 07:21, 21 October 2010 (UTC)pr0pr0
Seeing as varietal is the legitimate term here, should it really be put into "quotations"? No other words would sum up a White Zinfandel wine as accurately or as briefly, thus "quotations" would imply the opposite. The term varietal is the proper one to use in this instance, it shouldn't be implied to the average reader that it's a nickname or 'wine connoisseur lingo'. Simply put, any varietal wine should not have quotations around the term varietal. 173.183.85.52 ( talk) 07:14, 21 October 2010 (UTC)pr0pr0
Why is it called white, when it looks like a Rose 80.195.181.239 21:59, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
Does any one have a nice photo of White Zin (maybe in a glass)? I think that it could help make the page a little more interesting. The Bethling 17:25, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
This picture is no good.. Plastic cups...

White Zin is not as important in the wine world as the vast volume of its consumtion suggests. Thus I am moving it to a lower importance. Dancingredshoes 04:26, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
This section, other than the Sutter Home note reads like advertising with non-cited tasting notes. Perhaps they should be more neutral in character and not advertising for the producers even though I am sure that wasn't the intention?-- Christopher Tanner, CCC 13:10, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
I've cleaned this up a bit - the origins of the grape are explained much better in the main Zin article. I'm still 60:40 in favour of merging this article with the main Zin article, where there's already quite a bit about White Zin, although I recognise its significance as an entity in its own right.

How are we exactly sure that photo is wine? I've never seen or heard of anybody ever drinking wine from a plastic cup with a straw. Gune ( talk) 10:21, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
"Historically an inexpensive jug wine, White Zinfandel is a quaffing wine that is sweet, soft, and low in alcohol, making it a popular choice with those who would not otherwise drink wine." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.105.237.221 ( talk) 04:24, 30 January 2010 (UTC)
Franzia and Vendange, popular brands of White Zinfandel, are 11% ABV. Whispering Hills and Barefoot are 12.5% and 13%, respectively. Is that considered low alcohol for a wine? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.105.237.221 ( talk) 04:21, 30 January 2010 (UTC)
