Dirty Laundry’s Award-Winning 2025 Rosés – Perfect for Fall Entertaining

As summer gives way to fall in the Okanagan, rosé doesn’t need to disappear from the wine rack. Its bright fruit, refreshing acidity and versatility at the table make it an excellent choice for everything from late-season patio evenings to Thanksgiving gatherings and fall entertaining.

At Summerland’s Dirty Laundry Winery, the 2025 vintage offers two distinctly different takes on rosé: the perennial favourite Hush Rosé and the playful sparkling Let’s Get Fizzical Rosé.

The Hush Rosé has also picked up some impressive recognition since our original review, earning a Silver Medal at the 2026 National Wine Awards of Canada. The award adds another accolade to one of Dirty Laundry’s most popular wines.

While both wines share bright fruit flavours and an approachable style, each offers a very different drinking experience, one fruit-forward and refreshing, the other lively and sparkling.

Hush Rosé 2025 ($21.99)

Dirty Laundry’s Hush Rosé has built a loyal following over the years thanks to its approachable style and easy-drinking character.

Produced from a blend of Okanagan-grown varieties, each component is harvested and vinified separately, giving the winemaker flexibility in crafting the final blend. Cool-temperature fermentation preserves the wine’s vibrant aromatics before the winery assembles the individual lots into the finished wine. According to the winery, blending is the key to creating the wine’s signature style and remains one of the highlights of the winemaking process each year.

Tasting Notes

An easy-drinking off-dry rosé that opens with aromas of wild strawberry and rhubarb. The palate is generous and fruit-forward, revealing flavours of strawberry, apricot, rhubarb, key lime and watermelon. Bright acidity keeps the wine balanced and refreshing through the finish. 91 Points

Let’s Get Fizzical Rosé 2025 ($23.99)

For those seeking a little more sparkle, Dirty Laundry’s 2025 Let’s Get Fizzical Rosé brings plenty of fun to the glass.

Made from Okanagan Valley grapes harvested early to retain their natural acidity, the fruit underwent whole-cluster pressing to capture delicate aromatics and a pale pink colour. Fermentation took place in stainless steel before the wine was bottled under pressure to create its lively effervescence. The result is a fresh and approachable sparkling rosé that perfectly captures the spirit of summer.

Tasting Notes

The nose bursts with aromas of strawberry jam, red apple, and ripe summer berries. On the palate, flavours of juicy peach, strawberry preserves and tart rhubarb unfold across a creamy, lively mousse. Although technically only modestly sweet, the wine drinks with an appealing off-dry character, finishing with notes of fuzzy peach candy and lingering berry fruit. Fun, approachable and unabashedly fruit-forward, this sparkling rosé is made for patios, lake days and casual summer celebrations. 91 Points

The winery recommends pairing the bubbly with fresh fruit, summer salads, grilled prawns or a charcuterie board, though it is equally suited to lakeside gatherings and celebratory occasions.

Purchase Information

Dirty Laundry Rosés are available directly from the winery through their online store. You can purchase the wine at the Dirty Laundry Vineyard Online Store.
