In Finland, summer in particular is the golden age for the sale of rosé wines, and customers' interest turns towards rosés available in all different shades of lovely pink.
On Monday, April 29, we will organize a Rosé day at our office, where you will have the opportunity to taste a wide range of different types of rosé wines and rosé sparkling wines. Sign up for the pinkest event of the spring here and check out the products already available for tasting here .
Especially the rosés of southern France and the Provence region there have long been the number one choice of Finns, but other types of rosé wines from, for example, Italy, Spain and Germany are also becoming more popular among consumers.
As a food wine, rosé is a great choice for many different salads, salmon, or dishes containing fruits and berries, and the dry and robust rosé does not pale as a companion to, for example, veal. Rose wines with a little residual sugar should definitely be tried with spicier dishes or for summer desserts.
The bubbly rosés bring their own twist, and especially rosé champagne, is a real all-rounder at the dinner table and the gem of the party. For those looking for a lighter alternative, rose prosecco, which came to the market in 2020, is the perfect choice for a picnic or as a partner for summer berry desserts.
The spectrum of grapes used for rosé wines is wide and they usually represent red wine varieties typical of the region. The most commonly used grapes are Grenache, Sangiovese, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Cinsault and Pinot Noir, and often rosé wines are blends of two or more grapes.
