The best food pairings for rosé

Posted on June 11 2022 at 06:48

None of you, I’m sure, can have failed to notice just how many different bottles of rosé are now available on the average supermarket shelf. From being purely a summer wine there are now rosés for almost every type of food and occasion and rosé pairings to match.

Celebrate the Chinese New Year with this delicious seafood supper

The Chinese New Year, which starts on February 1st, is one of those annual events that really captures the imagination. It is celebrated in such a colourful and joyous way and Chinese food is so delicious, quick and simple to make that I hope you won't be able to resist having a go at it, inauthentic though it absolutely is.

Magnificently large pork chop @guntonarms last night cooked over an open fire. Properly fatty and deliciously smoky. Don’t often order meat in a restaurant these days but that was irresistible. Could have fed two (well, maybe not …) . . . #pork #porkchop #grill #guntonarms #norfolkPhenomenal Belgian beers @the.portcullis #belgianbeerfestival with @jennychandleruk and Mr B. Mopped up with a hearty plate of beef stew and chips. Beers you don’t normally find here so nip round there tonight if you’re in #Bristol. . . . #beer #belgianbeer #stbernardus #westvleteren #vleteren #affligemtripel #pub #drinklocalSuper-delicate Dorset crab tart @wildhoneystjames last night which was paired with this extraordinarily deep-coloured vintage rosé champagne from @moetchandon. Brilliant menu (the confit chicken with ceps, macaroni and Parmesan was amazing with a 1998 from the grand vintage collection), extraordinary wines. You didn’t think Moet made this complex style of champagne? Nor did I tbh. And cheaper than DP - if you can get your hands on them! #guest . . . #champagne #vintagechampagne #rosechampagne #crab #moet #wine #instawine #winestagramLove this post from my son @wjjbeckett (on the right). He and Huw first met when they were 11! “New favourite pic of me and Huw 34 years later and still probably laughing at something stupid that happened when we were 14” Bet they didn’t imagine they’d be sitting there with cups of tea either … #hawksmoor #childhoodfriends #bff #proudmum Follow on Instagram
