Just when we thought we were done with rosé afterPinknic, comes a mansion in New York City dedicated only to the pink drink. Can you picture a wine country in Midtown Manhattan? The Rosè Mansion is coming to NYC today, just in time for National Rosé Day! It is a new wine-tasting experience celebrating the popular summer libation.
The mansion has 14 Rosé-inspired interactive rooms that take you on not only a rosè experience, but also educate you on the history and scientific process of creating it (which is rather interesting by the way). The brains behind this 2-story rose heaven, Morgan First and Tyler Balliet, have created popup wine-tasting events for more than 10 years.
The GlamMaverick got to preview the mansion before it opens to the public. Without giving too much away, here’s a little taste of what to expect if you plan on visiting.
Upon entry into the Rosé Mansion, you receive a complimentary wine glass and a series of stickers for the first room. You don’t throw away that glass as that is for your wine samples. And don’t worry, the samples of each wine equal 2 full glasses. As for the stickers, you get to stick the grape-looking stickers wherever you want in the first room. I promise there’s a reason behind it.
Then you’re off to start your rosé journey. Each room has a different rosé wine tasting experience along with different educational tidbits that will leave you in awe. Check out a sneak peek at some of our favorites.
So what did we learn visiting the Rosé Mansion?
- Rosé wines are only made from red grapes.
- Antarctica is the only continent that does not make Rosé.
- How to open a sparkling champagne/wine bottle with a knife or sword.
- Machines harvest the grapes for less expensive wines, while the most expensive bottles (over $20) are harvested by hand.
