Best Pairing ideas for Champagne, Sparkling Wine & Prosecco
Top Food Pairings for Sparkling Wine
The best food pairings for sparkling wine will normally consist of richer foods. Rich foods and those which are greasy, fat, fried, or spicy are perfect compliments as both the acidity and effervescence help to balance heavier foods. Many in the industry call sparkling wine the ’scrubbing bubbles’ for the palate as it perfectly cleanses the tongue in between bites.
Our Le Grand Courtage Blanc de Blancs Brut or Brut Rose are both perfect compliments to the below as our crisp, light and refreshing French sparklers are cuisine and cocktail friendly.
