Summer is here, thus bringing the rosé season and some backyard drinking into high gear!
Unfortunately, because of COVID, only those producers that shipped their rosés before lockdowns have arrived. Thus, there is a limited number of 2019’s currently available.
Pinks are the rage, perfect for sipping on the deck, yet perfectly comfortable as a food and wine pairing as well as a nice way for those white wine drinkers who want to transition to reds. 95% of rosé are dry and its quickly finding a niche with the North American public.
