Bourdaire-Gallois Brut Rose NV

This is a dark-colored, savory rosé Champagne. It's so dry and brisk it that it practically begs to be paired with food.

Bourdaire-Galoise is a recoltant-manipulant, meaning they farm their own vineyards to produce this Champagne, unlike the large houses that work with purchased fruit. Some call it grower Champagne or farmer fizz, we just call it tasty.

Tasting notes: cranberries, red apple skin, rosemary, sage salt

Food pairing: oven-baked brie, anything at brunch
