Perfect for summer, but not exclusive to summer, versatile rosé can be your everyday wine.
Pico Maccario Lavignone Rosato 2018 By Dave McIntyre Dave McIntyre Bio Follow May 17 June 8 is National Rosé Day, one of those silly national this-or-that days celebrated on the second Saturday in June for the past, well, five years. Registered by nationaldaycalendar.com in 2014 at the request of — you guessed it — a winery that specializes in rosé, the timing of this particular marketing gimmick coincides roughly with the explosion in popularity of pink wine.
1. The best rosés are 'intentional' rosés Most rosé is made by separating the juice of red grapes from the skins before it takes on color. Many winemakers use the French term saignée, from the verb to bleed, for this process. A winemaker who seeks a concentrated red wine will leave those grapes on the vine for a few more weeks, until the acid level falls and the sugars rise during the final stage of ripening. The saignée juice may need to be corrected with an addition of acid before fermentation to improve its quality as a rosé.2.
