Being partial to brut rosé, I tend to seek them out as they enable pairings with so many different foods. This example is a crisp, medium-bodied dry sparkling wine with a lovely rosey gold color. Aromas invite with clean red fruit characters, a gathering of fragrant strawberry, red cherry and red plum. On the palate, clean, crisp red fruits present a robust flavor profile. The good acidity cleanses the palate, reading it for the next bite of food. Moderate alcohol: 12.5%. A fine balance of fruit and acid keeps the finish on the palate. Serve chilled, 45-50ºF/7-10ºC, in tall tulip-shaped glasses. Foods: duck or salmon rilletes; porchetta slices with cold tuna mayonnaise; raw tuna with Asian seasonings; beef or tuna tataki; Asian dumplings (shumai, Korean gyoza); sushi roll; chicken satay; smoked salmon; smoked trout salad with shaved onions and red radishes; smoked turkey on toast rounds with aioli. Winery says caviar, but that would depend on which sort. Ikura (salmon caviar) may do very well with this wine.
