National Rosé Day

June 13th is National Rosé Day in the United States.

Rosé is a type of wine that has some of the colour from grape skins included in it, though not enough for it to be classed as a red wine. The name means "pink" in French, and rosé wine is pink, but the colour can vary tremendously, from close to purple to pale orange. The colour is dependent on the grapes and process used to make the drink.

Rosé wines can also vary a lot in other ways. They range from sweet to dry and from still to sparkling. Rosé wine is usually made as the final product. Though it can be made by blending red and white wines together, this is discouraged in most places and is forbidden by law in France. Rosé wine should be made as rosé, not as a combination of two other wines.
