When shopping around for wine hampers, you will notice that there are a number of options out there. Each of which containing a different type or different types of wine. Red, white and rosé all have their own unique aromas and flavours. While some might think that rosé is a blend of red and white, it is in fact a completely different type of wine. To make rosé, you need to stop the process just one step ahead of the wine becoming a fine bottle of red. As for pairings, it will depend on the flavour of the rosé you are serving.

Light and off-dry

Lighter off-dry bottles of rosé are best paired with lighter meals. These include rice dishes, summer salads and spiced curries. Remember, dry is not actually a flavour but rather a sensation you experience after taking a sip.

Medium Dry

Medium dry rosés pair well with all of the same foods as a light and off-dry rosé. They also pair wonderfully well with sweeter foods and desserts like fruit, cakes, chocolate and cookies. The sweet flavours of the dessert will highlight the various flavours of the wine.

Fruity

Fruity rosés are extremely popular but it’s important to remember that most people either love or totally dislike these wines. If you enjoy the fruity flavour, you can pair them with many dishes. These include seafood like tuna, salmon and lobster. They also taste delicious with lamb, duck and white cheeses such as brie.

Full-Bodied and fruity

If you love spicy food and you’re looking for the best pairing, you will love a full-bodied fruity rosé. It has the body of a fine red along with the lighter touches of a refreshing white. It’s perfect to enjoy with a spicy Mexican or Indian dish.

Some bubbly

If you feel like celebrating with some bubbles, you can enjoy it as part of your appetizer or even when you serve dessert. Choose white cheeses like brie and prosciutto. If you want to enjoy it with your dessert, you can enjoy chocolate coated berries.

These are some of the best foods to enjoy with your delicious bottle of rosé. No matter your personal preferences, you will always find rosé to suit your preferences and mail choice.
