Yes Way Rosé, by Erica Blumenthal and Nikki Huganir. This is the book that started the whole Yes Way Rosé trend. It’s humorous, has gorgeous pics and illustrations, and lots of tips on food pairings and throwing Rosé wine parties.
Rosé All Day book, by Katherine Cole. Who doesn’t like to Rosé All Day? This “essential guide to your new favorite wine” presents a chapter on Rosé through the Ages, and a Primer on Pink Wine. Further chapters follow with guides to French, Italian, Northern European, Iberian and new world Rosé wines. Chapter 9 features Exotic Rosé regions, including Corsica and Africa.
Rosé Cocktails book, by Julia Charles. I love cocktails, and the thought of combining cocktails and Rosé wine makes me very happy (and thirsty). This book presents 40 recipes for pink wine-based drinks, including aperitifs and sparklers, spritzes & coolers, slushies & crushes; punches & pitchers.
Happy reading!
