5. Domaine Carneros Brut Rosé

When the Taittinger family looked to expand outside Champagne, they found an idyllic spot on the rolling hills of Carneros in California's Napa Valley and founded Domaine Carneros. The region enjoys cooling breezes off the San Pablo Bay, as well as foggy mornings that are perfect for growing cool climate varieties, like chardonnay and pinot noir. With a focus on clean farming practices and energy efficiency, the winery uses only 100% estate-grown certified sustainable fruit in its sparkling and still wines. 

Domaine Carneros Brut Rosé blends 57% pinot noir with 43% chardonnay. The winery allows a portion of the pinot noir juice to sit on the skins and must for three days after the crushing the grapes to enhance the color of the wine, delivering a rich salmon shade. The production uses the traditional method of Champagne where the creation of the bubbles occurs inside the bottle, giving the palate a toasted note of fresh bread or croissants. Flavors of golden peach, ripe red berries, tangerine, and candied ginger notes deliver a fresh, well-rounded sparkling wine with a dry palate that embodies Taittinger elegance and California style.

7. Domaines Ott Château Romassan Bandol Rosé

From the nutrient-poor limestone, sandstone, and marl soils of the Bandol region in France, the historic Domaine Ott crafts its sublime Château Romassan Rosé. The winery began in Provence in 1896, with the acquisition of the Romassan Vineyard in 1956. This wine is a blend of 50% mourvèdre with 20% grenache and 30% cinsault, all organically grown. Nutrient-poor soils require grapes to dig deep into the earth to find water and food, capturing the characteristics of the terroir in the process. 

Mourvèdre is a sun-loving variety that thrives in hot, arid climates, creating bold wines with complexity. Bandol rosé is particularly expressive thanks to the region's close proximity to the Mediterranean Sea and the requirement that at least 20% of the fruit in the wine be mourvèdre. Wines here are vibrant, structured, and gastronomic, often showing a deeper hue than rosés from the neighboring region of Provence. Domaine Ott's selection has a rich golden peach hue, displaying the expressive character of Bandol. It opens with layers of wild strawberry, Meyer lemon, blood orange, and melon. The palate is fruity yet dry, with a hint of salinity that ends with a smooth, lengthy, and elegant finish.

8. Lucien Albrecht Cremant d'Alsace Brut Rosé

Though France is known for its famous sparkling wines from Champagne, it is not the only region in the country that crafts expressive sparklers using the same traditional production method. Alsace sits on the border of France and Germany, and the appellation is highly regarded for producing quality aromatic white varieties, like premium pinot gris, riesling, and gewürztraminer. As well, Crémant d'Alsace wines are a delicious sparkling alternative, with the rosé selections consisting of 100% pinot noir. 

Vines are grown strictly for the production of crémant in the region, and all of the fruit is hand harvested and transported to the winery in small crates to ensure there is no damage to the grapes en route. The grapes are gently pressed in whole bunches, with winemakers using only lightly pressed grape juice, ensuring the wines are exceptionally fresh, delicate, and refined. 

Lucien Albrecht crafts one of the region's premier selections. Since the Maison began in 1698, the still family-owned winery has continued with founder Balthazar Albrecht's vision of producing premium wines that reflect the unique terroir of Alsace. Lucien Albrecht Crémant d'Alsace Brut Rosé opens with a fine mousse of elegant bubbles with aromas of cherry and orange blossoms that lead to a fresh palate of pomegranates, red berries, and cherries.

13. La Crema Monterey Rosé

Sustainable practices with a focus on clean farming, creating a healthy work environment, and reducing the carbon footprint is a universal theme throughout all of Jackson Family Wineries, including its flagship La Crema. The Sonoma winery was founded in 1979 and showcases cool climate varieties in wines with authenticity and approachability. By planting varieties that fit the specific region's terroir, the resulting wines display a sense of place with ease. 

La Crema Monterey County Rosé is 100% Certified Sustainable pinot noir from various vineyard lots throughout the county. The ballet slipper pink-colored wine includes a mix of Dijon and Swiss clones. The varying pinot noir clones give the wines their distinct flavors, including ripe raspberry, a touch of spice, rose petals, and red cherries. The palate is smooth, balanced, and well-rounded, showing additional flavors of mandarin, watermelon, and strawberry with a mineral note of crushed stone on the finish.
