Rosé Earns Its Place With Champagne Lovers

The wide spectrum of pink hues and exceptional flavors offered by Rosé, as well as its versatility, makes this style of Champagne a favorite among chefs and masters of wine.

"Rosé is not sweet, as one might infer by its color; it has a lot more flavors of the Pinot Noir grape-strawberry and bright red cherry-combined with great acidity. I have enjoyed Rosé with grilled veal chops and it did not miss a beat," says Barbara Werley, one of only 13 female Master Sommeliers in the United States.

A perfect companion for anything pink, from salmon and turkey to strawberry tarts, Rosé also enhances every sushi meal. "Rosé tends to be richer and fuller flavored so it stands up to rich, oily-textured sushi," states Werley. While Rosé finds its fan base among women, men are increasingly drawn to it. Shipments are projected to continue to rise as a number of Champagne brands introduce their styles of Rosé to the U.S. market. So whether enjoying it with a meal or by itself, it does not appear that America's love affair with Rosé will end anytime soon.
