PAIRINGS IN THE KITCHEN. It goes well with all kinds of starters, as well as with first courses, fish soups and all vegetable dishes. Its character also makes it an ideal accompaniment for quick snacks.

 Rose wines are produced with proper and specific methods, just like for white wines and red wines or sparkling wines.

The agreeability of these wines, to be consumed in their youth, in their best time, can be compared to the one of white wines; practically no rose wine is suited for the aging in bottle and they are wines expressly produced for being consumed soon after they are released on the market, after all, the same can be said for most of white wines.

The reason why rose wines are not suited for the aging in bottle is because of the lack of preservative substances: these wines are generally less acid of whites and contain a quantity of tannins very inferior to the one of red wines.

As rose wines should be consumed in their youth, they can give pleasing and fresh sensations, usually of fruit, that cannot be generally found in other kind of wines: a good reason for properly considering and reevaluating this too much neglected category of wines.
