What is “mise en rose”?

The French phrase “mise en rose” means “raising the barrel,” and it is a step in the process of making wine barrels.🍷

Assembling the staves in an end hoop is commonly known as “raising the barrel,” with temporary hoops used to maintain the shape. The staves are drawn together at the open end of the “rose,” creating a bulge in the middle that gives the barrel its distinctive shape. 🍾
