Pretty in Pink – A rosé Champagne not to miss

Medium

It’s hard to deny that a bottle of pink Champagne in that perfectly pale rosé shade isn’t a bit of a head-turner. It’s the kind of thing that just feels right on the table - elegant and effortlessly attractive. And with the festive season fast approaching, now’s probably as good a time as any to look at this limited parcel we’ve got our hands on. It’s a sparkler with understated glamour that works at anything from a cosy catch-up to a full-blown Christmas bash.

What’s inside the bottle has to live up to the billing, and this doesn’t fall short. It comes from classic Montagne de Reims terroir and is crafted from the holy trinity of Champagne grapes - Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier and has been aged enough to develop a lovely silky texture and a rounded, balanced taste. In other words, it’s not just a pretty face. This is the sort of Champagne that delivers without any fuss - smooth, refined, with a bit of depth that keeps you going back for more.

And then there’s the price, which is rather sensible, all things considered. At a mere £25.90 it’s definitely not to be sniffed at, especially for Champagne of this quality. This isn’t a bottle you’ll want to overlook, but a word to the wise - it’s a limited parcel, and once it’s gone, it’s gone. So, if you’re keen on adding some beautifully made, head-turning rosé to your festivities this season without breaking the bank, you might want to get your skates on.
