Rosé Champagne may well be trendy right now, but how many of you have tasted comparatively across the range of styles and producers available?

The world of rosé Champagne has as much variety as any type of wine as producers display everything from terroir to house preference; from winemaking method to the choice between vintage and non-vintage.

Next Wednesday we're exploring the whole category with an indulgent selection of twelve wines ranging from non-vintage to prestige cuvée. Our Educator (me) will talk you through the various flights and ensure that you have a deeper understanding both of Champagne in general and - perhaps more importantly - a greater appreciation of the pinker side of fizz. /CW
