I've had some wonderful French rose that is not pink at all, but rather a light ruby in color- and very dry, not sweet.

Can't advise on brand names, but any kind of Rhone rose, which would be a Syrah or Grenache (I think) would be great.

Rose made from Grenache red grapes is something else and wonderful to drink.

I suggest you go to a liquor store that has a good inventory of French wines and ask a knowledgable clerk.
