The One Thing You Need to Toast King Charles's Coronation on May 6th
NEW YORK, May 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- With the coronation of King Charles just days away, many Americans are planning to tune in for the historic occasion, with some even hosting their own royal parties.
Among them is top wine expert and Bevinars founder Mark Oldman, who says that the perfect accompaniment for any coronation viewing is a unique and lesser-known tipple: English sparkling wine.
"Most Americans, and even many Britons, are not yet aware of the star quality of English sparkling wine," says Oldman. "Climate change has made it possible to grow Champagne-style grapes in Southern England, and the results can be dazzling." Americans will find that English sparkling wine is thrillingly crisp and minerally, thanks to England's northerly location and chalky soil.
Oldman says a glass of British bubbly is best paired with some other English delights, including cucumber sandwiches, scones, and – for an unusual take – toast with marmite, the traditional salty yeast spread. English sparkling wine's sprightly charms and citric lift are also a natural partner with coronation chicken and King Charles's coronation quiche.
Oldman's favorite British bubbly, many of which are available in the US, include: Gusbourne, Nyetimber, and Wiston Estate. For a full list of Oldman's favorite English sparkling wines for the coronation, and pairing suggestions, see:
