Contrary to popular belief, rosé wine can accompany a wide variety of main courses, especially those featuring fish, white meat or Mediterranean cuisine.

Fish and seafood

Grilled fish dishes, such as sea bream or salmon, go particularly well with a dry, mineral rosé. A rosé wine from the Loire, for example, with its fresh fruit notes and liveliness, will enhance the delicacy of the fish.

Seafood, meanwhile, finds a perfect ally in a lighter, fresher rosé. For shellfish, a rosé wine from Provence, with its floral and citrus aromas, is an ideal choice.

White meats and poultry

White meats, such as chicken or veal, go harmoniously with a more structured rosé wine. A Bandol rosé, with its salmon color and ripe red fruit aromas, will add a touch of sophistication to these dishes.

Dishes in sauce, such as chicken in cream sauce or veal in mustard sauce, also go well with rosé wine, provided it is sufficiently robust to withstand the intense flavors of the sauce.

Mediterranean cuisine

Mediterranean cuisine, rich in flavors and aromas, is a natural match for rosé wine. Dishes based on grilled vegetables, aromatic herbs and olive oil, such as ratatouille or vegetable kebabs, are a perfect match for organic rosé wine from Provence.

A fruity, slightly spicy rosé wine will complement spicy or tomato-based dishes such as margherita pizza or moussaka.
