When (from observation only) 99% of the people who drink it are over 50-60 years old. Sorry to sound morbid, but when that generation dies off, white zinfandel sales are likely to plummet, since I know of no one from the younger generations that actually drink it.
I actually know more young people who drink it than older people. In my experience it's almost always an intro type of wine, and those drinkers tend to be younger.

There are some very well done red Zinfandels out there now. And they can get some alcohol content out of that grape as well.
