Details
The Georges rosé displays the right pinkish hue that has you looking at the glass for a few minutes before remembering it isn’t an art exhibition but a glass of wine designed to be drunk. There are plenty of heady aromas of raspberry and sour cherries balanced by plenty of vibrant texture and subtle creaminess.

Origin: The spiritual home of rosé is Provence, in Southern France. Mainly Grown In: Rosé is found all over the world these days, but coastal regions are especially well suited to the growing of red grapes for rosé. Key Facts: Rosé is predominantly made from red grape varieties. The colour in wine comes from the pigment found in the skins of the grapes, so even red grapes have clear-coloured juice. The colour is then ‘bled’ out of the skins by infusing the skins into the juice. So for rosé, the wine simply spends far less time hanging out with the skins! Rarely you will find a rosé that is a combo of white and red grapes – they’re not ‘less good’, just less common. Rosé is super versatile – it suits any occasion. Best to always have a bottle in the fridge, just in case, you know… Wednesday happens or something. Fun Fact: In Ancient Greece, some of the first wines ever made were rosé, made by blending white and red wines!

Pairing guide
We love a good bottle of rosé here at Good Pair Days, and this pink wine from Georges Wines pushes all the right buttons when it comes to dinner time! Made from some lovely Merlot grapes, it’s got plenty of bite and sharpness while still packing in loads of fruity flavours, making it a brilliant aperitif wine for fish-based starters, hearty salads, and decadent dishes like chicken livers on toast. We also love this wine with risottos, pasta salads, savoury pastries and pies!
