Pink Moscato vs Rose  

pink-moscato-2.jpg

Though Pink Moscato and Rose wines look similar, they differ in their winemaking and style.

Pink Moscato is made by blending Moscato white wine with a little Merlot. The Merlot adds the characteristic ruby-pink tinge to the wine.  

On the other hand, Rose is usually a dry wine made from red grapes. (You will find a few sweet varieties as well.) It derives its pink hue through a process called maceration (soaking of the grape juice with the grape skins.)
