Margaret River Wineries: Best Ways to Select and Serve Sparkling Wine


To say that wines are complex and diverse is an understatement. As a way to keep things simple, wines are classified according to the type of grape used and the region where it is grown. You can take your pick from a wide variety of red (full, medium, and light-bodied), rosé, white (rich, zesty, and sweet), dessert, and sparkling wines. On most days, you can go for classic wine and food pairings such as red meat with red wine and fish with white wine. Nothing spells “celebratory”, however, quite like bubbly and refreshing sparkling wines served ice cold and paired with salty, spicy, or savoury foods.
