Sparkling Vintage Rosé 2017
PirieMinimum order of 1 case or 6 bottles (Mixed or straight)
A showcase of just how special sparkling Pinot Noir can be. Made from 100% Pinot Noir grapes with 3.5 years on lees, the latest vintage of this delectable Pirie Sparkling Rosé tastes like strawberries and cream in a bottle: the perfect pairing for a sweet summer parfait, or cured salmon on toast.
The perfect accompaniment to a range of canapés including smoked salmon and dill mayonnaise. Or why not try it with pan-fried ocean trout served with bok choy and a garlic and soy dressing, and for the sweet tooth; raspberry and vanilla parfait.
