Irish Sun's Rosé guide of 10 super sippers from €15, including ‘wonderful hit with fans' wine option perfect for summer
WE are celebrating the second week of the Irish Sun's Rosé fortnight today with ten more super pink sippers to toast the summer. But before we go there, we have had some questions to answer which were submitted by readers since last week's column. 11 Matthew Nugent has shared the best Rosés from only €15 Credit: Getty Images - Getty How are Rosé There are three methods used to make a Rosé wine: Maceration, Saignée or Blending. Maceration: The most common method. Red wine grapes are pressed, and the juice is left in contact with the skins until the required pink hue is reached. READ MORE IN WINE The longer the juice remains on the skins, the darker the colour a wine will be. Saignée: The bleeding method in This generally results in a vibrant Rosé. It can also intensify the remaining red wine's concentration. Blending: Usually used in crafting sparkling Rosés.

Many developed for appearance rather than That trend towards pale rosés has certainly influenced winemaking techniques. Other factors that will affect the colour include any contact with oak during vinification, and the grape varieties used. Those with thicker skins will possess more colour pigment. Do Rosé wines pair well with all food types? Yes, yes and yes. There is a Rosé style for every food group. Its bracing acidity and freshness even now see a bottle or two appear during These wines are not just for balmy summer days. That freshness and acidity means they can be the perfect wine style to match with many food groups. Light dry Rosés pair perfectly with salads and seafood.
