A RECIPE TO BE PAIRED WITH

Valérie Radou explains:

"I chose to prepare a Duck and Grapefruit Salad with Hibiscus-Sumac Vinaigrette to pair with the Ruinart Rosé cuvée. This cuvée is characterized by its spicy notes, which can be paired with seasonal products such as pink grapefruits or pomegranates.

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."
