Minuty M Rosé is Côtes de Provence, pale and dry, and it is the by-the-glass workhorse. The Prestige steps up for a wine list rather than a blackboard.

Whispering Angel is the wine that turned Provence rosé into a global category. Customers ask for it by name, which is rare in rosé and worth more than any tasting note.

Chandon Rosé is the Australian sparkling option, and it does the job at a function where champagne is not the budget.

Moët & Chandon Rosé Impérial is the recognisable one. A customer marking an occasion who does not want to think about it reaches for this.

Veuve Clicquot Rosé is the one carrying the history, and the label does half the work of selling it.
