We love a glass of red wine curled up on the sofa in the winter and sharing a bottle of white with loved ones as it starts to heat up, but once summer hits there’s nothing we love more than a chilled glass of rosé.
We can’t think of much that’s more refreshing than the crisp, fruity flavours of a good rosé, whether you’re enjoying it relaxing in your garden or sipping it from your sofa with the window open.
And with the summer heatwave currently in full force in the UK, rosé wine is predicted to have its biggest week ever, Waitrose seeing sales up 100% compared to the same time last year.
And, since we’re always on the hunt for the most delicious, all-day rosé for summer, we decided to round up our favourite blushing bottles to add to your must-drink list in honour of the season.
Here are the best places to buy your next bottle of rosé without leaving the house - cheers to that.
