Wine Rose Wine Best Rosé Wines Under $20 to Drink All Year By Food & Wine Editors Updated on August 24, 2018 Share Tweet Pin Email Trending Videos Photo: Thomas Burke Photography Gone are the days when rosé was merely a summertime wine. While it's the perfect pool parties, picnic and beach-day wine, it's time to plot out your year-round rosé enjoyment. Ranging from light bodied to fuller and more unctuous, the variety alone offers enough reason to pop a bottle any day—even on a cold day. This list features a mix of complex and easy-drinking rosés that come in at $20 and under. Thank me in January when you've had more than enough Cabernet and long for something, bright, fruity and that won't stain your teeth purple. – Jonathan Cristaldi 01 of 09 Best Rosé Wines Under $20 to Drink All Year Gone are the days when rosé was merely a summertime wine. 02 of 09 2016 Château Minuty Côtes de Provence 'M de Minuty' Rosé, Provence, France ($18) Courtesy of Pain Vin Company Pale pink with watermelon rind, candied flowers, white peach, strawberry, sour cherry, and excellent, salty mineral character with just a hint of baking spice on the finish. 03 of 09 2016 Falesco Vitiano Rosato Umbria IGT, Italy ($12) Courtesy of The Winebow Group Pale ruby in color, with deep red berry aromas, jasmine, honeysuckle, and terrifically creamy on the mid-palate, giving way to more tart flavors and a bracing acid-finish with a kiss of candied minerality. 04 of 09 2015 Mulderbosch Cabernet Sauvignon Rosé, Stellenbosch, South Africa ($11) Courtesy of Mulderbosch Shimmering pale ruby in color with a leesy quality on the nose along with sea shell notes.
