Pink BubblesSome Champagne and sparkling wine is pink. It's more rare, and more robust, and sometimes more expensive. But it's one of those wines that is just deliciously appealing. The pink color in a rosé sparkler comes from the skins – which means that the wine must include at least one of the red grapes of the traditional method – Pinot Noiror Pinot Meunier. After pressing the grapes, the juice sustains contact with the skins for a while, and so acquires some color. After this the wine is processed like other Champagne and sparkling wine. Depending on the length of time with the skins, a rosé sparkling wine can range from light salmon to deep pink. This style of wine is a perfect bubbly to last through dinner and stand up to a nice filet. |
