Because when the weather warms up, we like to see the world through Rosé-colored glasses.

Here at T&C, we love rosé. Like the Southside, it signals the start of spring and summer. At New York's Union Square Hospitality Group, which owns the brand-newUntitled at the Whitney, among others, they love rosé wine so much they created a special promotion, Drink Pink, to raise money for charity and promote the wine during the month of May.

The brainchild of USHG's chief restaurant officer Sabato Sagaria, Drink Pink takes place at the group's Union Square Cafe, Gramercy Tavern, Blue Smoke, The Modern, Maialino, Untitled, North End Grill, Marta, and Porchlight through the end of the month. Each USHG restaurant is donating $1/glass and $4/bottle of rosé sales to Bed-Stuy Campaign Against Hunger, a community food program based in the Bed-Stuy neighborhood of Brooklyn.

It was quite a contest. For the first time in my experience, a line-up of nearly 40 of the world’s best-known rosés were pitted against each other on a blind-tasting table. We had Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s recent entry into the wine business. We had all four bottlings from the man who inherited a top château in Margaux and traded it in to try to make the world’s finest pink wine in Provence. We had the three offerings from a rival attempt to pitch Provençal rosé as a luxurious wine from the British businessman Lord Bamford’s Chateau Léoube. They were up against two Provençal old-timers from Domaines Tempier and Ott. Also on the table was the southern Rhône rosé from Nicole Rolet, wife of the head of the London stock exchange, and another Provençal example from a triumvirate that includes two of Burgundy’s finest producers.
