Let the rosé season begin.
1) Nyetimber Rosé Multi-Vintage
This stunning English sparkling rosé from Nyetimber is a masterclass in elegance and balance. With a soft sunset-pink hue and notes of redcurrant, raspberry, and cherry, it delivers both creaminess and refreshment. The aroma offers a nostalgic nod to British summer fruits with a hint of shortbread. Ideal with poultry or salmon, its silky finish makes it a year-round staple.
RRP: £47 | Available from nyetimber.com, Waitrose, Harrods, Fortnum & Mason, Berry Bros & Rudd, Majestic
2) Moderato Cuvée Révolutionnaire Rosé
Low in alcohol (<0.5% ABV) but high on flavour, this alcohol-free rosé is the perfect pick for mindful summer sipping. Crafted in France’s Gascony from Merlot and Gros Manseng, it bursts with ripe red fruit and rounded freshness. It’s the ideal companion for barbecues, balcony hangs or golden-hour picnics.
RRP: £14 | Available at Majestic from May and Wise Bartender
3) Kylie Minogue Limited Edition Côtes de Provence Rosé
Celebrating five sparkling years and 20 million bottles sold, this floral-inspired rosé dazzles with aromas of watermelon and lemon blossom. Made in the sun-soaked Notre-Dame des Anges vineyard, it’s delicately pale, crisp, and perfectly balanced.

5) Viña Pomal Rosado
The Spanish newcomer to rosé. Made with Garnacha and Viura, this pale, pink Rioja sparkles with violet, strawberry, and chamomile notes. Creamy yet fresh, it pairs beautifully with seafood, rice dishes, or just a warm evening breeze. Vibrant, modern, and rooted in tradition.
