What is Rosé Wine?
Rosé wine is a wine made from any red wine grape, however, the nuance is in the winemaking. The grapes when crushed are left to soak with the skins for a shorter length of time that results in a lighter pink colour. Alternatively some winemakers make rose by blending a white and a red wine together
How is Rosé Wine Different From Red Wine?
Rosé wine differs from red wine in several key ways, with the notable difference being in the winemaking process. While red wine like the Pinot Noir is made from dark-skinned grapes and undergoes a longer fermentation process with extended contact with the grape skins, Rosé wine is made from the same grapes but with shorter skin contact, resulting in a lighter colour and more delicate flavour profile.
What Food Pairs Well with Rosé Wine?
Rosé wine is incredibly versatile and pairs well with a wide range of foods, making it the perfect choice for any meal or occasion. At Kim Crawford Wines, we recommend pairing our Rosé with lighter dishes such as salads, soft creamy cheeses and charcuterie. The bright fruit flavours and crisp acidity of Rosé complement the freshness and vibrancy of these dishes, creating a harmonious dining experience.
