The rosé boom is over! Well the French pundits say so. Does that mean they are bored with writing about something people actually like?
David Chazan, the Paris correspondent for The Times, writes that the soaring success of rosé wines is waning.
“We have reached the peak of rosé consumption in France,” said Jean-Etienne Matton, head of the winemaker Minuty, whose vineyard near Saint-Tropez is celebrated for its elegant rosés.
Whites are now the wines doing best in an overall market that is in decline.
The latest supermarket figures show sales of whites up 0.6 percent in the last year with rosés down 5.7% and reds down 5.6%.
