National Rosé Day

Rosé is a type of wine that is made from red grapes, but with a shorter fermentation period than red wine. The result is a wine with a pink or blush color that is lighter in body and flavor than red wine, but with more complexity than white wine. To make rosé wine, the grapes are typically crushed and left to macerate with the skins for a short period of time, usually a few hours to a couple of days. This process allows the wine to take on some of the color and flavor from the grape skins, but not enough to make it a full-bodied red wine. The specific flavor profile of rosé wine can vary depending on the grape variety used, as well as the region and winemaking techniques. Some rosé wines may be dry and crisp, while others may be sweet or have a fruity flavor. Rosé wine is a popular choice for summertime drinking, as its light and refreshing qualities make it a perfect pairing for warm weather and outdoor activities. It is also a versatile wine that can pair well with a wide range of foods, from salads and seafood to grilled meats and spicy dishes.
