For real Christmas sparkle, think Rosé

Put some real fizz into your Christmas in perfect time for the party season with the first sparkling rosé wine from Bordeaux rosé wine experts, Chateau de Sours. Rosé wine specialist Chateau de Sours, acclaimed for their wine of the same name, has introduced Reserve de Sours, bright salmon pink with a nose of vivacious ripe red summer berry fruits.

In the words of the experts at Decanter Magazine: “Plenty of crushed raspberries make for a lively crowd pleaser at an amazing price.”

A delicious blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, priced at £7.99, it is an affordable yet impressive bubbly to serve over the Christmas season. Beautifully balanced with fine persistent bubbles, Reserve de Sours is very delicate on the palate with good length and mouth-watering flavour.

This full and rich vintage will give you the perfect Christmas aperitif and is also outstanding served with party canapés such as smoked salmon and bellinis and fruity desserts such as the traditional Christmas pud.

The award-winning Chateau de Sours rosé is also a perfect Christmas wine selection. The winery has built its reputation on the production of one of the world’s best rosé wines from the Bordeaux region. This full-bodied, fruit-driven rosé is a balanced wine with good fruit flavours and freshness and acidity to cut through the richness of some Christmas foods.

Reserve De Sours and Chateau de Sours are available from Majestic, Private Cellar and Jascots Wine Merchants, both from £7.99.
