Curious Case May 2025, Everything's Coming up Rosé
Feeling Rosé-tinted
We’re calling it: May is officially rosé season (whether the weather agrees or not). The clocks have changed, the evenings are longer, and we’re all pretending it’s time to dust off the garden furniture. There’s something about this time of year that sparks a collective sense of optimism – bank holidays, barbecues, that one brave neighbour who insists it’s warm enough to wear shorts. And nothing says “summer’s coming” quite like cracking open a cold bottle of pink.
Not Just a Pretty Face
Rosé might look dainty in the glass, but it’s not all delicate and demure. Sure, the pale Provençal stuff is as crisp and classy as ever – but there’s plenty more to explore. Think juicier, berry-packed bottles with a bit more flesh, and deeper-hued rosés that bring a savoury twist and proper food-pairing potential. It’s a category with surprising depth – and definitely not just one for the Instagram crowd.
Pick ‘n’ Pink
Everything’s Coming up Rosé is our Curious Case for May – six bottles, six different styles.. It’s a mini tour of rosé in all its glory, from poolside sippers to pinks with punch. If you’re already a fan, there’s plenty to enjoy; if you’re still scarred by memories of cheap blush, this might just be the moment that changes your mind. A bit of sunshine wouldn’t hurt either.
