THE RUINART ROSÉ CUVÉE

A RECIPE TO BE PAIRED WITH

Valérie Radou explains:

"I chose to prepare a carrot cake to pair with the Ruinart Rosé cuvée. This cuvée is characterized by its spicy notes, which can be paired with seasonal products such as carrots or oranges.

In order to create the best possible wine pairing, I consult with Maison Ruinart's oenological team. Through creative dialogue we create dishes which harmoniously pair with the Ruinart cuvées."
