Devaux D Rosé Aged 5 Years

- Serve chilled between 8-10°C in elegant tulip-shaped glasses to enhance its aromatic expression while allowing gentle aeration after pouring.

- Present on a large ice-filled wooden or slate tray alongside a colorful Mediterranean mezze platter featuring: marinated olives herbed goat cheese balls roasted red pepper hummus and grilled vegetable skewers for a vibrant shareable appetizer.

- Garnish the glass with a thin twist of blood orange peel or a few fresh raspberries to heighten visual appeal and add subtle fruity aroma.

- Pair creatively with nuanced dishes like saffron-infused seafood paella or grilled rosemary lamb chops for a sophisticated main course elevation.

- For an unexpected twist use it as the sparkling base in a spritzer with a splash of pink grapefruit soda and a rosemary sprig served in a tall flute during summer garden parties.

- Ideal for celebrations around sunset on a terrace or beachside picnic where the rosé's delicate bubbles complement the fading daylight and relaxed atmosphere.

- For a dessert pairing serve alongside a plate of rhubarb tart with a dollop of rosewater cream to create a floral and tart balance with the wine’s aged complexity.

For storing a Champagne Rosé the optimal temperature range is a stable 7-13°C (45-55°F) to preserve freshness and prevent premature aging or spoilage. Fluctuations should be minimized to avoid pressure and quality changes in the bottle.

Light exposure should be avoided by storing in a dark place such as a wine cellar cupboard or basement as light causes oxidation and degrades flavor.

Keep the bottle sealed with its original cork or a proper champagne stopper to maintain pressure and prevent oxygen ingress. For unopened bottles the cork seal naturally preserves effervescence. For opened bottles use a vacuum champagne stopper to keep bubbles and freshness for up to 3-5 days.

Regarding bottle position store unopened bottles horizontally if keeping for longer than a month to keep the cork moist and airtight. For short-term storage (under a month) upright storage is acceptable to prevent cork taint and pressure loss.

Humidity around 60-75% is recommended to keep corks from drying out; too dry an environment can shrink the cork risking oxidation.

Avoid vibrations or movement as shocks can disturb carbonation and wine quality.

For opened bottles refrigerate upright at 2-7°C (35-45°F) with a vacuum stopper to slow oxidation and preserve bubbles for 3-5 days.

In summary:
- Store unopened bottles at 7-13°C dark humidity 60-75% horizontally if long-term
- Avoid light vibrations and temperature fluctuations
- Keep sealed airtight; use vacuum stopper for opened bottles
- Refrigerate opened bottles upright at 2-7°C and consume within days

These storage conditions ensure the Champagne Rosé retains optimal pressure freshness and flavor profiles.
