Pink Sparkling Wine

Sparkling wines are best enjoyed fresh. Once opened, the bubbles will dissipate quickly. Store unopened bottles in a cool, dark place. Refrigerate opened bottles upright and seal tightly with a sparkling wine stopper.

Chill thoroughly before serving; a good temperature is around 40-45°F (4-7°C).

Open bottles carefully to avoid losing too much carbonation.

Use tulip-shaped glasses to help preserve the aromas and bubbles.

Appetizers like charcuterie, cheese boards, and shrimp cocktails.

Light seafood dishes, sushi, and grilled fish.

Poultry, especially roasted chicken or duck.

Fruit-based desserts or a simple berry salad.

Serving too warm, which dulls the flavor and makes the bubbles seem less lively.

Storing opened bottles with a regular cork; a specialized stopper is needed to preserve carbonation.

Assuming all sparkling rosés are sweet; many are dry or off-dry and pair well with savory dishes.
