Tasting notes: The richness of the soup contrasts the vibrant acidity of the Rosé and the soft flavors of the potato and leek contrast the bright peach and citrus flavors of the Rosé.

Serena's tips: Make sure not to brown the onion or it gives it a different flavor. The recipe link has many variations on vichysoisse that are equally fun to make.
