Rosé has been having a major moment lately, shedding its former reputation as a simple summer sipper. Today's rosés are serious wines, crafted with care and representing a wide range of regions and styles. From the subtle salmon hues of Provence to the vibrant raspberry shades of the New World, these pink pours are perfect for any season. Let's explore some top rosé picks from near and far.
The Cinder Rosé of Syrah from Snake River Valley, Idaho is a beautiful expression of this often-overlooked American winegrowing region. Snake River Valley has rich volcanic soils that give its wines a distinctive terroir-driven minerality. Cinder was born in 2006 with a focus on varieties like Syrah, Grenache, Tempranillo, and Viognier. With a rich, pink color, the wine opens with aromas of strawberry, watermelon, and citrus blossom. On the palate, it's crisp and dry with mouthwatering acidity highlighting flavors of red berries, pink grapefruit and a saline minerality.
From the Champagne region of France, the Billecart-Salmon Brut Rosé NV is an iconic bottling aged extensively on the lees. The house was founded in 1818 and is one of the last remaining outstanding family-owned Champagne estates. This sophisticated rosé is crafted from Premier and Grand Cru sites with a focus on Chardonnay and the additions of Pinot Meunier and Pinot Noir providing the pink hue. With a brilliant orangey-pink color, it offers an elegant nose of ripe peach, red currant, and toasted brioche. The bright palate marries flavors of raspberries, blood orange, and chalky minerals in a creamy textured, finely beaded frame.
