Warm Arugula, Olive & Tomato Salad

The red fruit notes in the sparkling and still rosés are natural comple ments to the flavours in this salad. Both the wines in the Something Special section (pages 12 and 13) have the energy and verve to enhance the savoury character of the seared tomatoes.

Champagne Ham with Saffron-Shallot Sauce When you’re making a meal, cooking with the wine you’re planning to pour with your dinner is a great way to make a direct connection between the wine and the food. Not to mention, sparkling wines and rosés are virtual guarantees when it comes to pairing with ham.

Samosa Sandwiches This dish comes with a bit of spice. The sweet, ripe character of these rosés, both still and sparkling, balances out and complements that heat. The acidity elevates and brightens the potatoes and the plant-based protein.
