Rosé
Rosé wine is one of the most versatile and stylish wine styles, celebrated for its refreshing character and wide appeal. Made from red grapes with only brief skin contact, rosé takes on its delicate pink colour and light fruit flavours without the depth or tannin of a red wine.
Rosé can range from pale, dry, and elegant (as in Provence, France) to fruitier, fuller styles from Spain, Italy, or New World regions. Common flavours include strawberry, raspberry, redcurrant, citrus, and melon, sometimes with floral or herbal notes. Most rosés are best enjoyed young, highlighting their crisp acidity and vibrant fruit.
For UK drinkers, rosé is a year-round choice: refreshing as a summer aperitif, but equally food-friendly with seafood, charcuterie, roasted vegetables, grilled chicken, curries, and soft cheeses. Whether pale and mineral or juicy and fruit-forward, rosé offers a stylish balance of freshness and flavour in every glass.
Cielo Pinot Grigio Rosé 2024 (6 Bottles) Delle Venezie, Italy

Cielo e Terra has dual roots in the Veneto region: the Cielo family and the winemakers of the Cantine dei Colli Berici.

They enjoy making wines with passion and innovation to create signature versions of traditional Italian wines, looking for the right balance between personality and easy-drinking.
This wine reveals a delicate light pink hue, reflecting its fresh and vibrant character. The bouquet is lively and persistent, offering inviting fruity aromas with notes of pineapple and strawberry.

Monte del Frà Bardolino Chiaretto Rosé 2024 (6 Bottles) Veneto, Italy
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Monte del Frà (meaning ‘land of the monks’) gets its name from the late 15th century, when a group of Friars formed a monastery on the land. Some hundred years later, the friars leased 25 hectares for the cultivation of vineyards and fruit trees. You can, in fact, still see this document today in the Vienna’s historic library. Fast forward several centuries, and Monte del Frà is now in the very capable hands of the Bonomo family. For over six decades the family have farmed this land, now resting firmly with the third generation; Marica, Silvia and Massimo Bonomo.
Delicate scents of berry fruits, raspberries, redcurrants, and wild flowers, accompanied by light and refreshing hints of green apples and by spicy tones, cinnamon, cloves and vanilla.
