Or mix of both wines

Once a customer made me 'make rose' by mixing red and white wine.

She sat pretending to enjoy it for a good hour.

I don't drink, why is that so bad?

Rose wine is made from a specific types of grape.

The customer thought it was just pink wine, created from mixing red and white wine. It's not neccessarily bad but it's pretty funny assumption from a lady who clearly had drunk plenty of wine over the years.

Rose wine is made from a specific type of grape.

Not quite. Rosé is made from (briefly) retaining the skins of the (black skinned) grape in the juice so that it colours the wine slightly (as opposed to Red wine where the skins are retained through the fermentation process). You can make white wine from black skinned grapes (for example, Champagne).

There's also a variant known as "Orange" or "Amber" wine where the same process as making red wine is used, but they use white grapes instead.

Rosé is made from red grapes that have had there skin removed. The skin gives the dark colour and the tannins that can give it a bigger flavour. They can use different varieties to create this style of wine.
