A beautiful salmon-coloured sparkling wine with fine bubbles and a floral aroma, also tempting with hints of redcurrant, raspberry and nutmeg, while soft, creamy and fresh on the palate - and practically entirely without alcohol.

Expert's Description

Pierre Chavin Zero Sparkling Rosé is an alcohol-free Rosé Wine from France, made from a blend of Chardonnay and Merlot with an alcohol content of 0%. Domaines Pierre Chavin was founded in 2010 by Mathilde Boulachin in Béziers in Languedoc-Roussillon, with a name deliberately built around the French word "vin" (wine). Like the house's other Zero wines, this one is first produced in the traditional way and then undergoes a gentle dealcoholisation process that removes the alcohol at low temperature, preserving the aroma and structure of the original rosé.

Florals, redcurrant, raspberry and a hint of nutmeg on the nose.

Finish

The finish is light and refreshing.

Very well made with a clean and inviting taste, further highlighted by a well-balanced sweetness - you automatically want another glass, even though this sparkling wine is practically alcohol-free.

Expert's Description

Pierre Chavin Zero Sparkling is an alcohol-free Sparkling Wine from France, made from Chardonnay with an alcohol content of 0.5%. Domaines Pierre Chavin was founded in 2010 by Mathilde Boulachin in Béziers in Languedoc-Roussillon, and the name was chosen deliberately - Pierre is the most common first name in France, and Chavin is built around the word "vin" (wine). The wine is first produced as regular sparkling wine and then undergoes a gentle low-temperature dealcoholisation process, typically using vacuum distillation or a spinning cone column, which removes the alcohol while preserving the aroma, texture and complexity of the original wine.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Yellow fruit and a hint of florals on the nose.

Palate

Clean and inviting on the palate with a well-balanced sweetness and fine bubbles.

Finish

The finish is soft and inviting.

Serving & Food Pairing

Did You Know?

The name Chavin was deliberately constructed by the founder around the French word "vin" - a small linguistic detail that underscores the house's focus on recreating genuine wine taste entirely without the alcohol.

Pierre Chavin has specialised in something that sounds like a contradiction: sparkling wine without alcohol that still fizzes for real. Zero Signature goes through genuine fermentation before the alcohol is removed again at low temperature.

Expert's Description

Pierre Chavin Zero Signature is a Non-Alcoholic Sparkling Rosé from Domaine Pierre Chavin in France made from the Chardonnay and Merlot grapes, with an alcohol content of 0%.

The wine is vinified in the traditional way and undergoes a genuine second fermentation that gives fine, persistent bubbles, before the alcohol is removed at low temperature through vacuum evaporation. The method is gentle and preserves the floral and fruity aromas, with no added sugar or preservatives.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Floral aroma with a lovely salmon-pink hue.

Palate

Crisp and elegantly fruity, with notes of raspberry, apple and citrus.

Finish

Light and refreshing, with fine bubbles that hold all the way through.

Serving & Food Pairing

Serve chilled at 6-8°C in a champagne glass. The wine works nicely as an alcohol-free aperitif or with brunch, salads and light starters.

Fresh notes of lemon zest playing beautifully alongside the influence of chalk - Piper-Heidsieck Essential Blanc de Blancs is a cuvée that speaks directly to the house's roots in Champagne's finest chalky soils.

Expert's Description

Piper-Heidsieck Essential Blanc de Blancs is a Champagne from France, made from 100% Chardonnay with an alcohol content of 12%. The Champagne house was founded in 1785 by Florens-Louis Heidsieck in Reims with the dream of creating a cuvée worthy of a queen - a dream fulfilled when he presented his first cuvée to Queen Marie Antoinette. The name Piper was added in 1839, when Henri-Guillaume Piper became a partner in the house. The Essentiel range is made in limited quantities from grapes selected across around 50 crus in Champagne, with 35% reserve wines that give the cuvée extra depth and complexity.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Fresh notes of lemon zest playing alongside a mineral influence from chalk.

Designing one glass that works for both a dry rosé and a lively glass of Champagne isn't a simple brief. Riedel solved it with a single shape in the Extreme collection.

The Expert's Description

The Riedel Extreme Rosé/Champagne 4441/55 is a machine-blown glass in crystal glass from Riedel, designed for both rosé wine and Champagne in the same bowl shape. It's an unusual solution within the Extreme collection, where most glasses are shaped for a single grape variety, but here Riedel chose a form that supports both the fresh fruit of a rosé and the bubbles in a glass of Champagne. If you're after the bubbles to go with it, take a look at our range of Champagne & Sparkling Wine.

Design & Material

The bowl is narrower than the red wine glasses in the collection but wider than a classic Champagne flute, giving space to both the fruit of a rosé and the bubbles of a Champagne without either drink losing out. The glass is machine-blown crystal glass, giving a consistent weight and thickness.

Use & Recommendation

Use the glass for dry rosé wines, where the fruit needs to come through clearly, or for Champagne and other sparkling wine, when you want a glass with a bit more bowl than a traditional flute. It's dishwasher safe, making it easy to use both every day and for celebrations.

Did You Know?

Designing one glass for two drinks as different as still rosé and sparkling Champagne is a balancing act - too much bowl, and the bubbles fade too fast; too little, and the rosé's aromas don't get room to open. The shape of this glass is Riedel's answer to that balance.

A mature, vintage-dated champagne behaves differently from a fresh bottle from this year. Riedel has shaped this glass for exactly that character – a tulip form that holds on to the bubbles without smothering the complex, mature notes.

The Expert's Description

The Riedel Sommeliers Vintage Champagne 4400/28 is a hand-blown champagne glass from the Austrian glassmaker Riedel's Sommeliers line, made from crystal glass. Unlike the wider Sparkling model in the same line, the Vintage Champagne glass is shaped as a tall, narrow tulip, built specifically for vintage champagne. Bubbles rise more slowly in a tulip shape than in a flat coupe, giving the mature, complex aromas more time to unfold. Take a look at our range of Champagne & Sparkling if you need the bottle.

Design & Material

The tall, narrow tulip shape is hand-blown with a slight taper at the top that holds the bubbles longer than an open coupe would. The stem is drawn long so your hand doesn't warm the champagne unnecessarily.

Use & Recommendation

The glass is built for mature, vintage-dated champagne, where the complex notes need a tulip shape that holds on to the bubbles. Always wash by hand in warm water, never in a dishwasher – the hand-blown crystal is too thin for machine washing.

Did You Know?

The wide flute many people associate with Champagne is actually a fairly recent phenomenon – the tulip shape this glass is built on is older and was originally the preferred form for bringing out a champagne's complex aromas.

A sweet, fresh and effervescent moscato with plenty of lovely body and convincing grape character - enjoy it with dessert, or chilled on a hot summer day.

Expert's Description

Val D'oca Mos Moscato Spumante Dolce is a Sparkling Wine from Italy with an alcohol content of 6.5%. Val D'oca traces its roots back to 1952, when 129 farmers in post-war Italy founded Cantina Produttori di Valdobbiadene, and the cooperative today counts around 600 members farming over 1,000 hectares across the hilly Prosecco landscapes between Conegliano and Valdobbiadene north of Venice. The Moscato grape naturally lends an aromatic, floral sweetness, and the low alcohol content makes this edition particularly light and refreshing.

Ripe peach, florals and a hint of honey on the nose.

Palate

Sweet and effervescent on the palate with lovely body and convincing grape character.
