What is not true about rosé?
  1. Champagne is the most expensive kind of rosé.
  2. Rosés are more pink than white due to the sugar content.
  3. Rosés are made by blending red and white wines together to achieve the color.
  4. Rosés are made by limiting the skin contact during maceration.
Explanation
Answer: B - The color of the rosé is not because of the sugar content. Rosés can be sweet or dry and range in colors from light salmon to a dark pink. The color of the rosé has more to do with either how long the skins were in contact during maceration or what the ratio of white to red wine that was blended. Some of the most expensive rosés in the world are Champagnes.
