SG Wines Classic Rose – 30 Bottle

SG Wines Classic Rose produces 22.5L (30 bottles equivalent) of stunning Rosé wine in just 7 days.

Blush (Rosé) is a type of wine that incorporates some of the colour from the grape skins, but not enough to qualify it as a red wine. It may be the oldest known type of wine, as it is the most straightforward to make with the skin contact method.

The pink colour can range from a pale “onion-skin” orange to a vivid near-purple, depending on the varietals used and wine-making techniques. Rosé wines can be made still, semi-sparkling or sparkling and with a wide range of sweetness levels from highly dry Provençal rosé to sweet White Zinfandel’s and blushes. Rosé wines are made from a wide variety of grapes and can be found all around the globe.

Although it takes around 1 week to finish, we highly recommend leaving this wine for as long as possible for further maturation and to release its more complex flavours and to deepen them further.

ADDITIONAL INGREDIENTS REQUIRED

Included in the kit is a container of concentrated grape juice and sachets of yeast, stabiliser, finings and addback flavours – this improves taste & bouquet. You will need to add additional sugar (approx. 3.5Kg) and also add water.

WHAT EQUIPMENT DO YOU NEED?

This kit contains all the ingredients you’ll need, but you’ll also need the following equipment:

We recommend using a Vinbrite filter to clear the wine to a professional standard.

What is Rose Wine?

Rosé wine is a pink-hued wine that combines some characteristics of both red and white wines. It is made from red grape varieties, but the grape skins are in contact with the juice for only a short time, giving it its distinctive pink colour rather than the deep red of full red wines.

Key Characteristics:
Colour: Pale pink to vibrant salmon
Flavours: Red berries (strawberry, raspberry, cherry), sometimes citrus or floral notes
Acidity: Light to medium, giving it a refreshing taste
Body: Light to medium
Sweetness: Can range from dry to off-dry or slightly sweet

Food Pairing

Rosé pairs well with:

• Light salads and vegetables
• Seafood and grilled fish
• Poultry dishes
• Soft cheeses
• Summer snacks or picnic foods

Rosé is perfect for warm weather, casual sipping, and versatile food pairings, offering a balance between the fruitiness of red wine and the crispness of white wine.
