VALENTINES DAY - Champagne Rosé all the way!
31-01-2023
Champagne is the wine of celebration and love which is why it is the wine of choice for so many on Valentine’s Day.
In recent times Champagne Rose’ has become popular on Valentine’s Day. The exquisite pink colour of the wine, the vibrant explosion of red fruit flavours on the palate and the beautiful pink label presentation of the bottle….there is just something exotic about rosé bubbles on Valentine’s Day!
Our wine for Valentine’s Day is Billecart-Salmon Brut Rosé Champagne.
This non-vintage Champagne has an attractive pale salmon colour. The nose displays a fresh perfume of wild strawberry, ripe peach, white and red flowers and grapefruit. The palate is dry and rounded with fruit flavours up front and a satiny textured mid-palate flowing through to a crisp long finish.
The high acidity and medium body of this wine make it a good match for raw or lightly cooked seafood with delicate sauces such as our Murray Cod ceviche, tuna tartare or pan-seared scallops. It also goes well with mixed berry fruit dessert at the end of the meal
