EMBRACE SUMMERTIME WITH PAMPLEMOUSSE ROSÉ
What’s pamplemousse , you might ask? That’s French for grapefruit, and most of us already know what a rosé is because that popular craze is still going strong. Now, the two have been expertly melded together to make an excellent warm-weather drink you can enjoy out in the backyard with a few ice cubes tossed in. Pamplemousse rosé generally has a slightly sweet, easygoing grapefruit taste that entry-level wine drinkers will particularly enjoy. Its slightly lower-than-average alcohol content means it’s easily enjoyable during these long summer evenings, and it’s versatile enough that it can be sipped solo or added to a variety of cocktails. Some affordable bottles to try out include Pamplune, Pulse, or Stella Rosa.
