How is Rosé Champagne Made?
The production of Rosé Champagne can be done using two very different methods. The first is known as the blending method, where red wine (produced in the Champagne region) is added to white wine before the second fermentation in the bottle. This widely used method allows precise control over the color and aromas of the Champagne. The other method is the saignée technique, which involves allowing black grapes to macerate for a short period so that the color and flavors from the skins infuse the must. This rarer and more demanding technique produces rosé Champagnes with more intense flavors and color.
The History of Rosé Champagne
Although Rosé Champagne has gained popularity over the past few decades, its origins date back to the 18th century. At that time, it was considered a luxury product, reserved for royal courts and European aristocracy. Over time, it gradually became more accessible and eventually became a staple of prestigious Champagne houses. Today, Rosé Champagne is synonymous with modernity and elegance, enjoyed both at grand celebrations and more intimate gatherings.
The Best Food Pairings with Rosé Champagne
Thanks to its red fruit aromas and liveliness, Rosé Champagne pairs well with a wide range of dishes. It complements appetizers, fine charcuterie, white meats, and even some spicy dishes. Its versatility also makes it an excellent match for bold dishes like smoked salmon or tuna tartare. For desserts, demi-sec rosé Champagne pairs beautifully with berry-based cakes.
