Chandon Rose $15.99 ****

This is a little bit of a cheat, because I bought it at the Chelsea Wine Vault, BUT it is sold at Trader Joe's in Seattle, so I am reviewing it as a TJ's wine.

This rose is a crisp, fruity, bubbly American sparkling wine with a hint of a sour finish that is refreshing (I hate cloying sweetness). It went well with dinner, and I see it as a perfect all around sparkling wine. Having a final, well chilled glass with the just out of the oven chocolate souffle was the best part of the meal.

Dinner
Spinach Salad with Warm Bacon Dressing
Maine Crab Cakes

Dessert
Chocolate Souffle
