Many grapes with red skin can be used to produce Rose wines. Hue and intensity vary according to the variety and the extent of cold maceration (colour extracted from the wine skins).  After extracting the juices from the grapes and some colour from the skin, the Rose wine acquires a distinct magnificent pale red, rose, onion skin, pink or orange colours. Here, colour is not necessarily an indication of age, since Rose wines are generally drunk when young.
Rose wines made from Pinot Noir grape possess the best characteristics of this noble red grape from Burgundy. This variety is unpredictable and can be difficult to manage, however, with great care and passion this wine can achieve marvelous outcomes. It is no wonder that Pinot Noir is normally used in the production of Champagne among with Chardonnay and Meunier.
Imagine uncorking your Rose at the barbeque with the accompanying aromas of grapefruit, tangerine and rose petals, followed by crisp fruit flavours and pleasing palate cleansing acidity. Great on its own chilled, or wonderful with barbequed chicken straight off the grill.
