9 Sparkling Wines to Spark Romance

What’s the secret to sparking romance in a relationship? Make the small things count and create memorable moments!. No rocket science and perhaps recycled advice. But let me assure you enjoying a Seductive Sparkling Wine Pairing can always help to make a memorable moment. I will give you 9 types of Sparkling Wines to Spark Romance. I have also included their respective pairings for a special toast on Valentine’s or for a special moment through the year!

Cava Villarnau Brut NV, Manchego and Quince Paste

9 Sparkling Wines to Spark Romance

Cava Vilarnau stands out as small, artisanal, handcrafted Sparkling Wine from Catalunya. In an age of large, mass-produced cava brands, this is vital to offer a unique Cava Experience. One of the critical crafts at Villarnau is taking care of the entire Cava production process by making their base wine and continuing to pay attention until the bottling process. Many larger Cava producers purchase base wine and then undergo secondary fermentation. This Brut Reserva Cava Vilarnau is produced from native varieties such as Macabeo, Parellada, and Xarello and aged 15 months on lees. The aromas are fresh, aromatic, and typical of a Wine that has spent time on the lees, such as brioche, nuts, and creaminess. The palate has a smooth and silky texture with persistent and delicate bubbles. Pair this Manchego and Quince Paste and serve chilled!

I also love the Gaudi inspired design of the bottle, it will definetely make a good Valentines Day grammable moment. If you prefer the Rosé alternative see below:

The Family Spirit endures after 200 years in Vollereaux House. The Vollereaux family’s attention to detail has been reflected in each bottle for six generations.

This Champagne delivers a fresh, light, elegant, and fruity profile due to the particular vinification process.
