Muri Uzume
Uzume is the jewel of the Muri range, a dry sparkling rosé created with Anne-Sophie Pic, the most decorated female chef in the world, and her head sommelier Paz Levinson. Two and a half years in the making, with countless visits to Pic's flagship restaurant to refine it, the drink takes one of the most nostalgic flavours there is, strawberries and cream, and reimagines it with the precision of a three-Michelin-star kitchen. The result is playful and elegant at once.
Tasting Notes
Ripe strawberry leads, fresh and generous, its fruit deepened by three separate fermentations that give it real complexity. A gentle creaminess follows, drawn from yoghurt whey, echoing that strawberries-and-cream idea, while smoked vanilla adds a soft, intriguing warmth. Underneath, a whisper of tomato lends a savoury depth that keeps the sweetness in check. Dry, fine-bubbled, and beautifully balanced, delicate yet complex.
Pairs well with
At the Maison Pic restaurant in Valence it is served with lobster, and it flatters shellfish of every kind. Just as lovely with a tomato salad, lightly grilled vegetables, soft cheeses, or a tangy red-fruit dessert. Elegant enough for a celebratory toast, and happy simply poured cold among good company. Serve chilled in a wine glass.
