Rosé wine frequently features at spring and summer parties, including Mother's Day brunch. But it can be challenging finding the right pink bottles for sunny-weather festivities. In a competitive and highly seasonal market, it's easy to be distracted by marketing tactics like eye-catching bottle designs and branding initiatives. Plus, these efforts can sometimes inflate price tags without a corresponding bump in quality.
Complicating things further, consumers may feel loyalty to a particular rosé brand. However, there's no reason to limit your scope with pink wines! As this week's selection and Wine Spectator's blind tastings show, there are many delicious rosés made around the globe, and they are frequently easy to find on shelves at affordable prices. Even better, this variety presents a delicious opportunity to compare different pink styles. (Incidentally, a degustation could be a special way to enjoy wine during Mother's Day.)
This lineup includes the Domaines Bunan Bandol Rosé Mas de la Rouvière 2023, a minerally, big-shouldered rosé with peach, ginger and rose notes. Read on to get our score and full tasting note for this rosé and nine others!
