But there are plenty of ways to save some cash when raising a glass or two . . .
WALLET FRIENDLY: Premium brand Whispering Angel is a big favourite of rosé drinkers, but at over £20 a bottle it leaves a dent in your finances.
Instead, try Aldi's Sainte Victoire Provence rosé, £11.99, which has similar notes of citrus and pear.
Also, stock up on rosé and other wine when supermarkets are running 'buy six and save 25 per cent' deals.
These promotions often happen close to bank holidays and other seasonal events so keep an eye out.
Meanwhile, Amazon Fresh has launched a rosé for a budget £5.49.
BERRY NICE: One affordable way to elevate your glass of rosé may already be sitting in your fridge, according to Sam Caporn, Aldi's wine expert.
She says: 'Popping a strawberry or two into a glass is a simple but effective way to enhance the red berry notes found in so many popular rosés.
'Aroma is as important as taste, as the two combine to create flavour. A strawberry helps bring out those juicy red- fruit notes beautifully. If you like your rosé on ice — known as a rosé piscine — try freezing strawberry slices in ice cubes. It keeps your wine chilled and looks gorgeous, too.'
GETTING SLUSHY: As with other wines, rosé can start to lose its flavour if it's left open for longer than a couple of days.
Five Lidl rosés you need this summer, according to a wine expert - a £6.99 buy is as light & crispy as £22 Whispering Angel
But there's no need to tip it down the drain — you can still use it in cocktails.
Try mixing with frozen strawberries, a little elderflower cordial and ice to make a grown-up slushie that should go down a treat on a hot day.

The collection also includes chic leopard print designs and timeless black bikinis, offering something for every taste. How to save money on summer essentials SUNNIER days and warmer weather will leave many of us wanting to kit out gardens and outdoor areas. Sun Savers Editor Lana Clements explains how to get a great deal on summer essentials… It pays to know how to bag big savings on the likes of hot tubs paddling pools, egg chairs and outside bars. Many retailers have flash sales across entire ranges – often this ties into payday at the end of the month or Bank Holiday weekends. Sign up to the mailing lists of your favourite brands and you'll be first to know of special offers. It can be worth following retailers on social media too. Keep a close eye on the specialbuys at Aldi and middle of Lidl drops which drop a couple of times a week and usually mean great value seasonal items such as beach gear and paddling pools. If you are not in a hurry to buy an item, try adding it to the shopping cart and leaving it for a couple of days. Sometimes big brands will try to tempt you into the sale by offering you a discount. Always check if you can get cashback before paying. It's especially worth using sites such as Topcashback, Quidco and app Jamdoughnut when buying bigger ticket items such as garden furniture as you'll get a nice kickback.

They've been together for five years, they got engaged last year, and they've found their dream home. "They can only hope to have as much success on the court next week as they've had in their relationship.'
