Rose Wine

Rosé wine is a versatile, easy-drinking wine appreciated for its crisp, refreshing flavors and elegant pink hue. Derived from a wide variety of grape types, rosé wines can range from slightly sweet to beautifully dry and are typically produced using one of three methods: skin contact, saignée, or blending. The grape skins' brief contact with the juice during production imbues the wine with its signature color, which can vary from pale pink to deep salmon depending on the grape and winemaking technique employed. Ideal for warm weather, rosé wine pairs excellently with a diverse range of dishes, from light salads and seafood to hearty barbecue fare. Its wide appeal and affordability make it a popular choice for casual events, dining experiences, and celebrations. Served chilled, rosé is the perfect accompaniment to relaxed gatherings with friends and family, as well as a delightful aperitif to enjoy before a meal.

Rose Wine FAQ
Rosé wine is often misunderstood as being inherently sweet, but this isn't the case. Rosés can range from bone-dry Provencal styles to fruit-forward new world wines. They are made from a wide variety of grapes all over the world and can be everything from light and crisp to full and complex. The most common mistake when cooking with rosé is underestimating its versatility. It can be used beautifully in a variety of dishes like seafood, chicken, and even in desserts. To get the most out of it, explore the full range of rosés on offer, from deep pinks to the faintest blush. Rosé can be enjoyed chilled, but not too cold, as extreme cold can mask the wine's aromatics and flavors.

Expiration & Storage Tips
When does rose wine expire?
Rose wine, once opened, is ideally consumed within 5-7 days to maintain its best taste and aroma. However, if it's unopened, it can stay good for 1-2 years depending on its quality and storage conditions. The printed date on the package doesn't usually reflect when the wine will go bad, it's more of an indicator of the wine's vintage. Therefore, it's okay to drink a bottle past that date. If frozen, certain compounds in the wine may separate or crystallize, but generally, it can be consumed safely once thawed. Just note that the freezing process may affect the flavor profile.
How do you tell if rose wine is bad?
Checking if rose wine has gone bad isn't too hard, even for kitchen novices. If you notice a sharp or vinegar-like smell instead of the fruity or crisp aroma you'd expect, that's a bad sign. Taste it – if it has a sour, off-putting, or flat flavor, your wine has probably turned. Any weird, mold-like substance floating around is a clear giveaway, too.
Tips for storing rose wine to extend shelf life
• Always store unopened bottles horizontally. This keeps the cork moist and prevents it from drying out and letting air in. It's not a major concern with screw-top bottles though. • Try to store it in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight or heat, which can speed up oxidation and spoil your wine faster. A temperature around 55°F (13°C) is often considered ideal. • If you've opened a bottle, reseal it tightly after each use. If possible, use a wine stopper to minimize its exposure to air. • Even though it’s okay to freeze your wine, remember it may impact the wine's texture and taste. If you choose to freeze, make sure to leave enough headspace in the bottle as the liquid will expand during freezing.
