Cooking With Champagne Roger Brun
12th April 2020
How many of you have cooked with Champagne?
Is it something you’ve thought about or have you only ever cooked with red or white wine?
When cooking with Champagne you will of course lose the bubbles, but not the effects of the Champagne.
Unlike cooking with a red sparkling wine, which can stand up to the more prominent flavours of certain dishes, to help the white or Rosé Champagne add more to the dish, it is best to not include it in strong dishes.
Champagne Roger Brun
Home to The World’s Finest Glass of Bubbly of 2019, Champagne Roger Brun produces some truly wonderful Champagnes.
Located in the Village of Aÿ, Philip Brun, the winemaker creates great vintages, N.V’s and Rosé to enjoy.
His winery is classed as a Grower Champagne, so unlike big brands that mass produce some of their range, Philip makes sure that every bottle is as good as it can be, so this is definitely a Grower Champagne you should explore if you’re venturing out into the Grower Champagne world.

Pairing Notes
Roger Brun 3/3
The Cuvee 3/3 adds a calming elegance to the chicken dish, which when combined with the cooked onions creates a perfectly dry and sweet balance.
Roger Brun Romance
A subtle red berry presence wraps itself around the chicken, the Romance aids the onions in adding a little sweetness to the chicken.
