Rosé Sauvage
Piper-Heidsieck | Rosé
Nachos, fries, jalapeños and a spicy cheese dip – comfort food in its purest form. All that's missing is the right champagne.
It has to be a rosé – the choice falls on the Piper-Heidsieck Rosé Sauvage. Good idea? Yes! Perfect idea? Well...
The combo of spicy cheese dip, hot jalapeños and salt might be a bit too intense. The rosé has enough to counter it, but against the full spicy-fat combination, a Rosé de Macération with even more structure might be the better choice.

Tasting Notes
Powerful and fruity rosé champagne with intense red fruits, spicy notes and a hint of citrus and pink grapefruit. Aromas of currants, blood orange, wild strawberries and some pepper shape the fresh character.
