But when the temperatures dip, like this frigid week in BC, I reach for sparkling rosé wines. The added fruit, structure and tannin goes a long way in pairing with bigger foods, from roasted poultry through stronger dark-fleshed fish, and woodsy risotto through roasted root vegetables. And of course, with Valentine's Day near upon us, you might have need to pop some fizz, for toasting your special significant other, or your most significant self.
Here are some of our favourite sparkling rosés tasted at GOW over the past year.
Treve Ring & Anthony Gismondi
Every week Treve Ring and Anthony Gismondi collaborate on our Top Ten list, released on Thursday morning, often with a timely theme. If you count carefully the list will more than likely exceed ten names but only because we believe if any wine is tied by a score that makes our list it should be included. We know many of you are wine savvy and can do your own sleuthing to locate our weekly picks but for those who asked: BCLS means it is sold in government retail stores; when we say private wine shops we mean it could be in any private wine shop or liquor retail store (LRS); winery direct means check with the winery online. If it’s not sold in BC we usually try and give you a suggested retail price. Prices change hourly in BC – the price we post is what we are given at publication.
