Real Housewives of Beverly Hills


What to Drink While Watching
The "Real" Housewives of Beverly Hills-“Real” in quotes because Camille doesn’t live in Beverly Hills and Kim Richards, not only does she not live in Beverly Hills but isn’t even married . *what?*
Finally!The end is Nigh!- Let's toast with KRUG BRUT ROSE

Admittedly I half-heartedly watch the show as I am only a ‘real’ fan of New Jersey and especially, New York City Housewives. Happily I say we are at the ending of the Beverly Hills Housewives and the beginning of the New York City Housewives [airing in next month!!].

Naming the housewives from my least to my most favorite; Camille Grammer [although the vapid, now ex-wife of Kelsey Grammer is the most entertaining], Kim Richards [she‘s clearly dying to be famous again and needs to get a life], Adrienne Maloof [She treats her husband poorly and wears too much heavy make up, like a tranny!], Taylor Armstrong [those lips, oy vey! Worse than Lisa Rinna, Quintessential LA] Lisa Vander Pump [British and classy, period.], Kyle Richards [cute husband, cute kids and a refreshingly authenic un-LA personality]. These are the newest members of Bravo's hit reality saga, The Real Housewives of…

When you think about the wealth, drama and opulence Beverly Hills, 90210 brings, no ordinary wine would be fit to celebrate the end of this season. Not even any champagne would do. For the finale of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills demands a champagne that’s overly dramatic as the Beverly Hills Housewives themselves . Krug Brut Rosé is a true show stopper-exotic, heavily perfumed and filled with microscopic sized bubbles that tantalize your palate and fill your soul with superb flavors.
Look
Pouring Krug Rosé at the precise temperature of 43F degrees into a slightly chilled vintage champagne glass it glistens golden pale pink like the color of a Cartier pink diamond and yellow diamond. This illustrious color is because the Krug House keep the skins of Pinot Noir on for a brief period of time then expertly blend it with Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier.
Inhale
The nose on Krug Rosé is ultra femme– sensually floral. Reminiscent of Oliver Creed’s Acqua Fiorentina fragrance. peony, pink carnation and heather. The amazingly minuscule bubbles tickle your nose with a hint of marjoram and tamarind.
Taste
Just when you think the extravagance could not get any better, your first sip sends your tongue on a heavenly ride through a wild berry patch with a candied ginger and pink peppercorn finish.
Now let us raise a glass of Krug Rosé to the end of the plastic-and wait for the real-The Real Housewives of New York City.
