"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."

While we adore a classic bottle of Champagne any time of year, we lean towards the pink-colored bubbly in the warmer months for a festive pop of color at garden parties, picnics, and poolside gatherings. Lighter than a favorite cocktail yet vibrant and flavor-forward, sparkling rosé is an excellent choice for any of your outdoor entertaining needs in the warmer months. The following bottles are some of the most luxurious and highly rated options for celebrating a most special occasion, along with a few under $50 favorites for elevating your impromptu alfresco dinners and summer road trips. Cheers!
