Wine Wednesday: Pink Is the New Year’s Eve Bubble
Jen and I love us some Pink.
It’s a fresh, flirty bubble from Yellowglen in Australia, it’s just $12 and it’s PINK! It’s cute, and actually very very good.
That pricepoint beats the heck out of a pink bubble Jen saw on Martini Boys yesterday. Fleury Brut Rose is a cotton candy pink explosion.
Fleury produce a strawberry-scented pink Champagne that is as good to look at as it is to drink; pink lights remind one of slow sunsets, spring, cocktail rings.
The blog entry says it’s only $50. After we called around we found it at Liberty Wine Merchants for $84 – taking a pass. Need something pink? Grab Pink instead.
If you’re a traditionalist, Jen recommends grabbing some Seaview, it’s your regular golden bubbly goodness and has a perfect pricepoint at just $13.
Us? When I was having my day without internet yesterday, I cleaned up the crawl space and we re-organized the wine racks to find a fabulous bottle of Pol Roger. We’ll crack that quietly at midnight while Z is asleep.
What will you sip as the 2008 seconds slip away?
