Lighter and fresher than heavy reds, but with a tinge of color that gives it more personality than white, Rosé wine is actually made when red grapes are lightly crushed and left to soak with their red skins. The longer the skins sit in the wine, anywhere from a few hours to a few days, the “pinker” the finished wine will be and the stronger the tannic characteristics will develop.Rosé wines are meant to be enjoyed right away, usually within 2-3 years after the label date. And, since they are made from many grape varietals, which can include: Pinot Noir, Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault, Carigan, Mourvèdre, and Sangiovese to name a few, you’ll be able to find rosé wines that span the taste scale from quite dry to refreshing and fruity. Basically, there’s a Rosé for every taste.The absolute perfect warm-weather wine. Poolside, al fresco dining, beach picnics, no wine is a better choice for summer than Rosé. And, because they are relatively inexpensive to make and don’t require aging, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a greater value than Rosé wine, so they’re typically as kind to your wallet as they are to your tastebuds.There are so many Rosé wines available, it can be confusing to know which ones to try, so we’ve pulled together some of our favorites: Montes Cherub Rosé of Syrah - $14.99Why We Like It:Intense aromas of fresh red fruits, lead to a smooth finish.
