What Is Rosé Wine?

What Is Rosé Wine?


Rosé is a type of wine that incorporates a period of grape skin contact (also known as maceration), but not enough to qualify it as a red wine. The pink color can range from a pale orange to a vivid magenta, depending on the grape varieties used and winemaking techniques. Rosé wines can be made still, semi-sparkling or sparkling and with a wide range of sweetness levels. Here at Lakeview Wine Co., we produce five different Rosés:

Serenity Pinot Noir Rosé
85% Pinot Noir, 10% Gamay Noir & 5% Chardonnay Musqué - Residual Sugar: 5 g/L
Our Serenity Pinot Noir Rosé is a gorgeous soft pink, thanks to minimal grape skin contact. This dry rosé has a palate of intense citrus flavours that are complemented by strawberry and raspberry notes. The finish has hints of subtle tannins along side a refreshing acidity.

Our 20 Bees Rosé is smooth with fresh notes of sweet citrus, tangerine and ripe strawberry on the palate.
40% Gamay, 35% Riesling & 25% Pinot Noir - Residual Sugar: 11 g/L
Our EastDell Summer Rosé is easy-drinking with delicious notes of green apple, acai berries and red current.
