Tis the Season for Rose Wines

rose winesIt’s been a very long winter that spilled well into spring, but I can finally take off my winter coat and enjoy the comfort of short sleeve shirts. And I know that as the temperature continues to rise, the greater my thirst for rose wines. Yes, the often forgotten about style of wine is what I want and it’s what you should want too. Rose wines seem to get a bad rap. People want red in the winter and white in the summer, but what about pink?

Rose wines are similar in taste and texture to white wines. Therefore, they are best served chilled. But not all rose wines are as sweet as many believe they are. They can also be off-dry or bone dry. They are very versatile when it comes to food pairings. They go well with seafood and poultry, but they can tackle that steak you are feasting upon. They are perfect for those picnics in the park too. They go nicely with all types of meat sandwiches, fruit, and potato or egg salad.

So before you think about buying another bottle of white wine this summer, indulge in a blush wine and remember to always think pink all year long.
