Emma Embrace rosé weather with these 5 rosé wines for relaxing with this weekend
Rosé weather is here and we have 5 rosé wines for relaxing with this weekend. We met with our friends at Curious Liquids to ask them to share 5 rosé wines they think would be great to relax with this weekend.
Rosé wine is a popular choice during the summer months due to its crisp and easy-to-drink nature. You’ll no doubt have heard of the main players from Provence such as Whispering Angel, however visiting Curious Liquids in Shawlands opens you up to a wide variety that you may not have heard of that are worth trying.

Did you know that both of the wines below are made with the same grape variety? The depth of colour is due to the length of time of skin contact with the grape. The longer the skin contact, the deeper the flavours and colour.
