💕 Why Rosé Deserves Its Own Day (Actually, Three of Them!)

Some wines are just special - and rosé is so delightful that it’s celebrated multiple times a year! But International Rosé Day, held on the fourth Friday of June, is the ultimate toast to the pink-hued wine that has taken the world by storm.

It’s not just a color - it’s a vibe.
It’s rosé season, and we’re here for it!

🍇 What is Rosé Wine?

Rosé wine is the beautiful in-between of red and white wine - crafted from red grapes, but with limited skin contact to give it that signature blush colour. The result? A wine that’s vibrant, refreshing, and endlessly versatile.

🛠️ How Rosé is Made - The Art of Pink

There are a few ways winemakers bring rosé to life:

• Maceration - Grape skins steep in juice for just a few hours.

• Saignée (Bleeding Method) - Juice is “bled off” from red wine to make a concentrated rosé.

• Blending - Mixing red and white wines (less common, and often restricted).

The color spectrum of rosé can range from pale ballet slipper pink to rich coral or salmon, depending on grape variety and technique.
