Which girl doesn’t love the colour pink? With the sunnier weather approaching, now is a great time to try rose wines – with a difference. Vintage Roots, the ‘organic wine people’ are adept at sourcing ethically and environmentally aware wines, beers and spirits from around the world. This means the basic ingredients are organically and bio dynamically farmed, where no synthetic herbicides, pesticides and fungicides are used. This ensures the final product is toxin free. Vintage Roots beverages are suitable for both vegetarians and vegans.

GIOL Luisa Merlot Spumante Extra Dry 2014, 11% abv, £9.99
This is a delightful 100% merlot rose with delicate bubbles. Overly fizzy when poured in the glass, the fizz soon settles to effuse a non sweet sherbet nose. The palate is dry with hints of strawberry.

Wild Thing Organic Rose 2014 Spain, 12.5% abv, £7.85
Fruity tempranillo grapes boast, red fruit – think strawberry, cranberry and raspberry on the palate. A soft finish follows and mixes with the delicate rose nose. Great to drink on it own or with vegetarian dishes. Every bottle bought from the Wild Thing range helps save endangered species like buffalo, tiger, wolves, and gorillas, through donations made to the Born Free foundation.

Meinklang Organic Pinot Noir Frizzante Prosa, Austria, 10.5% abv, £11.95
This is a gorgeous sparkling wine, made with pinot noir grapes grown on a biodynamic wine estate. We found the taste experience harmoniously ripe with red fruit and pleasantly balanced between sweet and dry, no doubt in part to the nutritious, rich fertiliser provided by the Angus cows roaming the Meinklang vineyards. Suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
