1.) It's striking hue can range in shade from Pale Salmon to Electric Watermelon to Deep Cherry. These shades of pink are certain to make even the most depressed of individuals happy.
2.) It contains moderate levels of alcohol. And that makes you happy too.
3.) It is easy on the pocketbook. You should never have to pay more than $20 for a phenomenal rosé. Another reason to make you happy.
4.) It is what they drink in the South of France and at P Diddy's parties in the Hamptons. Therefore you will look cool drinking it.
5.) They range in sweetness levels. Whether you have a sweet tooth or like your wines dry as a bone, you'll find one that suits you.
6.) They pair with just about every food under the sun. Burgers, Seafood, Salads, Tacos, BBQ, Pizza, etc.
7.) It ain't no White Zin! Contrary to popular belief, not all rosés are sticky sweet. In fact, White Zin was created on accident as a result of a "stuck fermentation." This is considered a wine flaw and should never have happened in the first place. Unfortunately, many people who see pink wine immediately assume it is going to be sweet.
8.) No aging is required. In rosé world, FRESHER is BETTER. Try to drink the most recent vintage releases from the winery as they are not designed to age.
Here are a few of my favorite bottles of the happy pink stuff...
