Rosé is the red wine of summer, perfect for those outdoor grilling sessions. Great pinks give the flavors of reds without the drying tannins – like the 2017 Elk Cove Estate Pinot Noir Rosé, which features hints of strawberries and cherries balanced by laser-focused, bright acidity. Rosés are highly visual, and this has amazing red and orange hues reminiscent of a sunset after a storm. Pink is not a compromise.

$17. Available at Schnucks in Des Peres
