rosé

"A rosé (from French: rosé also known as rosado in Portugal and Spanish-speaking countries or rosato in Italy) is a type of wine that incorporates some of the color 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 color can range from a pale "onion"-skin orange to a vivid near-purple, depending on the grape varieties used and winemaking techniques. There are three major ways to produce rosé wine: skin contact, saignée and blending. Rosé wines can be made still, semi-sparkling or sparkling and with a wide range of sweetness levels from bone-dry Provençal rosé to sweet White Zinfandels and blushes. Rosé are made from a wide variety of grapes and can be found all across the globe." - wikipedia.org

ann @olivetreeann took the literal interpretation of the colour rose by posting a photo of a rose. i, on the other hand, have had the rosé wine in my mind all along, and then i opened the bottle, and then i drank it.

en santé, mes amis!
cheers, my friends!
A perfect Summer wine :)

Well, you did find a lovely rose rosay (I don't know how to put the accent on the E so I'll go phonetic on you). And I'm sure it was a rosey experience enjoying it too. Nicely captured - now is this one sooc- or selective coloring?

oohhhh this looks so refreshing!

@olivetreeann - sooc. no cropping and no s/c either. that sooc challenge in the other album helps so much in composing a shot. thank you, ann

@summerfield I was pretty certain you were doing the sooc in both albums. I like that this has the feel of s/c but it isn't.
