What Do You Eat With Ros Wine
Since its partway between white and red wine, Rosé is a very versatile wine that pairs with virtually any food, from sushi to tomato pasta dishes to chicken and pork. A classic Rosé wine and food pairing is Billecart Salmon Brut Rosé Champagne paired with grilled New York steak. You just need to choose a style that fits what youre eating.
When pairing Rosé wine and food together, there are few guidelines to keep in mind:
- Like goes with like, so pair delicate wines with subtle foods like seafood, and bolder Rosés with meat,like burgers or smoked ribs.
- Opposites attract, so the acid in a sparkling Rosé is the perfect foil for tempura or fried chicken.
- If youre doing a dessert pairing, just make sure the Rosé wine is sweeter than the food.
Where Does Ros Come From
Rosé wines are made from red wine grapes, so you see them anywhere wine grapes are cultivated. Its especially prevalent in warmer areas with a Mediterranean climate such as Southern France, California, Greece, and Italy. Rosés were traditionally saved for hot weather, but now these delicious wines are savored year-round.
The Backstory Of Ros Grapefruit Wine
Grapefruit rose has a lovely pink hue and grapefruit bouquet
A homemade version of a grapefruit-infused rosé wine had been popular in Provence made with fresh grapefruit juice. Then one gutsy wine producer, Maison Castel, decided to bottle a convenient version of a rosé wine and pink grapefruit blend called Very Pamp.
The trendy drink caught on quickly in Paris and elsewhere in France. According to Eater, sales of the wine increased 125% between March 2012 and March 2013, with sales totaling 22 million bottles in that year alone. Other winemakers followed and some of these products have made their way to U.S. shores.
Although I just discovered this French import, I learned that Ruby Red Rosé Grapefruit wine has been around since 2015. Made with natural flavors , this refreshing drink will appeal to anyone who loves the taste of ruby red grapefruit and just as importantly, isnt a wine snob. And, to fall in love, you dont even have to be a fan of rosé wines, per se.

Fruit Syrups In France
I was first introduced to these cocktails by my French brother-in-law. He buys the grapefruit syrup at his local market and mixes them up in a flash. In France, you can buy fruit syrup for just about every fruit under the sun! A waltz down the syrup aisle in the local French supermarket is always an education!
We don’t have access to many varieties of fruit syrups here in the States, but that’s OK it’s easy to make your own!
