As the world of wine is constantly growing and evolving, wine regions can confuse even professionals. Nevertheless, Tavel, Provence, the proven regions of northern Italy and Spain or Languedoc are recommended as very good wine regions. Although rose wine looks like a luxury wine, it is actually one of the most affordable wines. 

 

Before choosing a rose wine, you first need to choose the trust regions whose red wine you like. Since rose wine is produced in the same regions where red wine is produced, you like the rose wine of the regions where you like red wine. For example, if you like Cote du Rhone, you should try a pink one. The second important point is that you should pay attention to whether the rose wine is unaged or fresh. For example, not to consume a rose wine from 2015.

 

 If you prefer a sweet rose wine, make sure that the bottle you drink has a low alcohol content. Anything over 11% indicates that the wine is dry. This is why you should read the percentages on the label. If the wine is from the Old World (France, Italy, Spain) it is more tart and crisp, while wines from the New World (USA, South America, Australia) are sweeter and have a fruitier flavor. Another distinguishing point is the color of the wine. Choosing a dark rosé means that the wine you choose is richer, fruitier, and much better. Dark rosé wine is ready to be poured, leaving a lasting flavor. The color of a light wine changes the aroma with the help of charcoal and yeast. Finally, you choose your favorite grape variety. Any red grape can be used to make rose wine. Of course, these red grapes form the main base of the wine. For example, rose pinot and noir have red fruit flavors such as strawberry and cherry, while cabernet has black fruit flavors such as rose black plum or blackberry.

  

As with other wines, paying more for a rose does not necessarily mean that it is a better wine. It's just that, in the case of rosé, preferences can vary by region. If you look at Provence, on the south coast of France, you see a history of rose wines that could be called impossible. Grenache, Syrah, Senso, and de Mourvedre are grown on the French Mediterranean coast and have a characteristic salty minerality, light aroma, and pale salmon color. In Tavel, too, you are likely to find powerful, rich, and high-quality wines. Here the wine is concentrated with lots of winter grapes, mineral and rose aromas, and fresh hazelnuts. The Pays d'oc wine is also new in style, so it's a little cheaper and pairs perfectly with grilled meats. In Sancerrois in the Loire Valley, the vineyards are short and the summers are long and the winters cool. For this reason, the rosés are a light and delicious pink.

  

Finally, Abruzzo is known for its structured, dark, and vibrant pink roses made from classic Italian grapes. This is even why consumers mistakenly think they are sweet. When choosing any wine, you can also get an idea from the quality scores on the label.

 

A high-scoring wine is not guaranteed to be very tasty and may not always be to your taste, but this is another way of thinking. Also, you can drink dark rosé wines with root vegetables, stews, tarts, and pasta in cold weather. Dark rosé wines are more acidic and grainy, making them a stronger drink than light-colored wines.
