LCBO Food & Drink Holiday 2023

CHRISTMAS Honey Pine Nut Tart with Rosemary Cream p. 251 When it comes to toasting the big day, you can’t fail with a timeless sparkler like Champagne. If you want something easy-drinking to start sipping as guests arrive, try Nicolas Feuillatte Brut Champagne ( LCBO 537605, $61.05 ). Once dessert is served, this well-balanced Champagne’s apple and stone fruit flavours will dance elegantly with the tart’s herbal rosemary cream. For a more budget-friendly but equally satisfying pairing, Batasiolo Bosc D’la Rei Moscato D’Asti DOCG ( LCBO 277194, $20.65 ) will highlight the sweetness of the tart with its soft melon and pear notes.
