Terlato Wines Expands Portfolio with Six Exceptional Rose Wines

"The rosé category is on fire in the U.S. We have grown Belleruche rosé to more than 60,000 cases in the last five years, and rosé sections are growing fast in retail shops and on wine lists. This year our portfolio of rosé wines will grow to more than 100,000 cases."

Terlato feels Millennials are driving the growth. "They have no memory of the white zinfandel that their grandparents may have drunk. Millennials love dry rosé. This collection offers exceptional discoveries from six different countries. Each is unique and delicious."
