The 20 best rosé wines to buy this summer
There is a real joy to this Loire rosé, which dances brightly and fragrantly out of the glass, a mass of crunchy redcurrants and perfumed redcurrant leaves. Dry, but quite deeply coloured, this would go beautifully with lamb chops griddled on the barbecue, lamb burgers or a pomegranate and chicken salad. A delight.

The 20 best rosé wines to buy this summer
Château La Canorgue sits just beneath the hilltop village of Bonnieux in the heart of the Luberon. This richly coloured rosé is full-flavoured but completely dry, with luscious flavours of baked raspberries and a slight whiff of biscuity pastry. The grapes are grenache and syrah. This would be gorgeous with a burger or blackened kebabs.

The 20 best rosé wines to buy this summer
Provence rosé fans are increasingly catching on to the fact that Corsica also makes superb pale pink wines. Well, Yapp was there first. This is a perennial favourite: it has a purity, a finesse and a clean, savoury, herbal cut that rivals the best from Provence. It also sells out fast, so act quickly.

The 20 best rosé wines to buy this summer
A magical wine made close to the fishing town of Cassis, this is at once weightless, so light in the mouth, but also complex (they use natural yeast) and one of those invisibly persistent spider’s silk wines that has more to it than you initially realise. Or can explain. Utter bliss.

Three of the Best: Vinous staples
The wines of Alsace are woefully underrated - they're so versatile, food-friendly and, well, so darn tasty. This blend of Muscat and Riesling from a family that has been making wine since 1580 is a real crowd-pleaser: aromatic, crisp, lively and wonderfully refreshing.

A classic, age-worthy effort, the 2018 Crozes-Hermitage Blanc offers complex notes of honeyed apples and crushed citrus intermixed with notes of sappy green herbs, crushed stone, and spice. This medium-bodied, lively white has good acidity, a supple, elegant texture, no hard edges, and a great finish. Drink 2020 - 2024 . 90/100.

Coming up rosé: the best pink wines
Not everything in the region speaks in whispers or paints in pastels, however. Château Simon Rosé, Palette, Provence 2017 has its own inimitable style, with the herb-flecked, red-fruited intensity of a southern French red, but the freshness and energy of a white, it’s a seriously fine wine with a distinctive wildness that calls to mind Elizabeth David’s description of Provencal cuisine: "civilised, without being over-civilised".

Wine o'clock
Made from Savoie’s local Mondeuse grape, this is a glorious, purply-red Alpine wine with a fragrance of violets, vibrant, supple, summer-berry fruit, a twist of savoury black pepper and barely 12% alcohol. It’s especially delicious when lightly chilled and is adaptable with all kinds of food — try with charcuterie, tuna, lamb cutlets, hard cheeses or pizza. (4.5/5 Stars).
