This is by far my favorite bottle of wine. I was introduced to this wine years ago while catching up with my best friend. I usually keep a bottle or two in the house since it's perfect for a girl's wine night.

The taste matches its gorgeous label, making it the perfect item to add to a gift. Between research papers, late-night study sessions, and the relentless push toward graduation, finding a moment of calm can feel impossible. But one golden evening, with a bottle of Wölffer Estate’s Summer in a Bottle Rosé and a few good friends, I found it.

Wine Name: Josh Cellars  Rosé, 2023 Producer: Josh Cellars Price: $10.99 Date of Purchase: April 7, 2025 Store: Total Wine Location:  Old Country Rd Ste A Westbury, NY   I recently picked up a bottle of  Josh Cellars Rosé , expecting something light, maybe a little sweet — the typical profile we’ve all come to expect from most Rosés.
