This Valentine’s Day, toast to love with a glass of pink bubbly from Korbel California Champagne®, America’s most popular, high-scoring line of méthode champenoise champagne.
From an intimate date night to a Galentine’s Day soirée, Korbel has perfectly pink expressions for any occasion, including:
- Korbel Brut Rosé (750 ml, 12% ABV, $13.99) – Delicate and crisp, featuring bright flavors of strawberry, cherry and melon. Its medium-dry, slightly sweet style makes it one of the most versatile, food-friendly varietals. Enjoy with a wide variety of cuisines from Italian, to Mediterranean, to Indian, and everything in between
- Korbel Sweet Rosé (750 ml, 11% ABV, $13.99) — Made from a complex selection of both red and white grape varietals and is designed to have very bright fruit flavors and aromas of raspberry and vanilla. The harvesting of red varietals early in the ripening process helps achieve the desired style for this cuvée. Enjoy with dark chocolate, berry-filled desserts, and fresh strawberries.
- Korbel Blanc de Noirs (750ml, 12% ABV, $13.99) – Fresh and full of vivid berry flavors, the blush-hued Korbel Blanc de Noirs tastes like summer. This varietal uses Pinot Noir cuvées with remarkable raspberry and strawberry flavors and a delicate finish. Enjoy with truffles (a rumored aphrodisiac), chocolate-covered strawberries, or goat cheese.
