"Rosé All Day is comprehensive and entertaining. Katherine Cole delves into the history of rosé—going back further than anyone would have imagined—and has kept abreast of new trends, styles, regions, and methodologies. The girl knows her pink!"

Katherine Cole proves that there is so much more to our insatiable thirst for pink wine than picnics and Hamptons ragers. Beautifully designed, witty, and intelligent, this as much a relevant guide to the world’s best rosés as it is a unique window into pop wine culture—and history. Rosé All Day is the rare wine book that finds the elusive balance between information and entertainment.

Pink may be pretty, but as Rosé All Day demonstrates, pink wine is anything but fluff stuff. Katherine Cole dives deep into the realm of rosé, and proves that rosé can be serious wine that still doesn’t take itself too seriously.
