Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and what better way to celebrate than with a bottle of sparkling rosé? The tradition of associating sparkling rosé with Valentine’s Day may seem artificial, but it has become a popular choice for many looking to add some sparkle to the occasion.

Fortunately, enjoying a good bottle of pink fizz no longer has to break the bank. With an increasing number of producers creating high-quality rosé sparkling wines, there are now more affordable options available, making it easier for anyone to indulge in this delightful beverage without spending a fortune.

One such option is the Mirabeau La Folie Sparkling Rosé from Provence, France. Currently priced at £11.99 (down from £14.99 until 27 February at Waitrose), this delightful bubbly offers a light, gently tropical-fruit-flavored experience that embodies the classic pastel-shaded Provence rosé.

Château la Coste, a Provence still rosé producer, has also ventured into the world of sparkling wines with their Sparkling Nooh. While priced at £35.99 (available at wanderlustwine.co.uk), this non-alcoholic option has garnered praise for its convincing strawberry character and refreshing tangy finish, making it a sophisticated choice for a dry Valentine’s Day celebration.

For those looking beyond Provence, the Jansz Premium Rosé Brut NV from Tasmania offers a consistent and impressive bottle-fermented sparkling rosé experience. Priced at £19.95 (available at slurp.com), this pink fizz is a testament to the growing popularity of high-quality sparkling wines beyond traditional regions.

As the market for sparkling rosé continues to expand, it’s clear that there are now more options than ever for those looking to elevate their Valentine’s Day celebrations with a touch of glamour and indulgence.
