Not that you need an excuse to open up a bottle \u2013 or can \u2013 of wine, but National Ros\u00e9 Day is June 13 and we\u2019re here to pay homage to the pink drink. There\u2019s no wrong way to drink ros\u00e9, but the endless options can be overwhelming when it comes to bottle selection. To help navigate, we consulted one of our beverage distributor partner and friend from the Breakthru Beverage Group, Sharon Woschitz, a WSET II<\/a> and 30-year veteran of the food and wine space within the hospitality industry, who suggests some of her favorite bottles and tips on food pairings.<\/p>\n

So, What is Ros\u00e9 Anyway?<\/h2>\n

Similar to red wine, ros\u00e9 is made from red grapes. During production, wineries allow the grapes\u2019 naturally clear juice to sit with the red grape skins for a short amount of time, anywhere from a few hours to a few days, to achieve the exact color they want their ros\u00e9 to be. Darker ros\u00e9 does not necessarily equate to a sweeter wine, but color can reveal a lot about the production method and how it will taste. A pale blush hue tends to be bright and crisp, whereas a rich magenta evokes more body and fruit-forward tasting notes.<\/p>\n

\"Rose<\/p>\n

Old World vs. New World<\/h2>\n

A significant distinction among all wine is the geographic region of production, generally divided into two categories: Old World and New World. A basic understanding of each is beneficial when selecting your ros\u00e9 or any wine varietal.<\/p>\n

Old World<\/h3>\n

In a nutshell, Old World wine is produced in areas that are considered the birthplace of wine \u2013 think Europe and the Middle East. These areas have heavy winemaking restrictions in place and, as a result, have been producing wine using the same methods for centuries. Old World wine characteristics are lighter-bodied, lower alcohol, higher acidity and less fruity with more mineral flavor. Such heritage and tradition create an air of romanticism with Old World wine, perfect for a date night or sipping poolside.<\/p>\n

New World<\/h3>\n

New World wine hails from North and South America, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. These regions are typically warmer and result in riper, fuller-bodied, more fruit-centric wine with higher alcohol content. If you\u2019re looking for an easily sippable wine, New World is the way to go.<\/p>\n

\"Day<\/p>\n

How to Choose the Right Ros\u00e9<\/h2>\n

Sweet<\/h3>\n

Sweet ros\u00e9 style wines, such as white zinfandel or a white merlot, is a popular type sold in the United States. When looking for a sweet ros\u00e9, stick to New World producers. It\u2019s important to note that \u201cfoods with some sweetness are best paired with wines with similar levels of sweetness,\u201d says Woschitz. Accompanied by barbecued meats and rich sauces, a chilled glass of slightly sweet ros\u00e9 takes a summer night from good to great.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dry<\/h3>\n

Low in sugar content but high in tannins, dry ros\u00e9 gives off earthy-but-elegant vibes. Look for predominantly grenache, sangiovese or pinot noir varietals from Old World producers. For those wanting something a little less sweet, \u2018Day Owl Ros\u00e9<\/a>\u2019 fits the bill. This wine is medium-bodied with notes of citrus and strawberry, resulting in a perfectly playful pairing for grilled chicken, vegetables or cheeses.<\/p>\n

\"Chandon<\/p>\n

Sparkling<\/h3>\n

Don\u2019t wait for a special occasion to break out the bubbles. Sparkling ros\u00e9 is versatile enough for a nice dinner or a casual brunch. One of Woschitz\u2019s favorite, the \u2018Chandon Brut Ros\u00e9,<\/a>\u2019 it is bursting with strawberry, raspberry and red currant aromas that make it refreshingly fruity. Try pairing it with salty snacks like popcorn and french fries, or with seafood dishes such as grilled salmon or sushi.<\/p>\n

Canned<\/h3>\n

Because portability during the summer is key, the wine gods created canned ros\u00e9. The maverick of canned wines is the Underwood brand, originating in Oregon. Their travel-ready bubbly ros\u00e9 does not sacrifice taste with notes of wild strawberry, fruit cocktail and cherry. When pairing with food, the sky\u2019s the limit. Because let\u2019s be honest, if you\u2019re drinking wine from a can, the only concern is easy drinking.<\/p>\n

When it comes down to it, ros\u00e9 preferences are highly individualistic. Woschitz notes that \u201csuccessful food and wine pairing is more an experimental, dynamic art form than a science. Don\u2019t be afraid to follow your own instincts, since there are no rules for right and wrong.\u201d One thing is certain: you can\u2019t ros\u00e9 all day if you don\u2019t start now.
