Born in the golden era of travel, Le Méridien Hotels & Resorts is inviting travellers to embrace an endless summer mindset through its signature Au Soleil programme and the launch of its first-ever rosé sorbet.
Inspired by Whispering Angel rosè, the exclusive treat is available beginning this month at more than 30 Le Méridien properties across the globe from downtown darlings such as Le Méridien Salt Lake City Downtown and Le Méridien Melbourne to beachside getaways including Le Méridien Barcelona and Le Méridien Lav, Split, and more.
Le Méridien has teamed up with social media’s favorite chef and tastemaker – Meredith Hayden – to bring to life a Rosé infused sorbet as a nod to the brand’s quintessential invitation for travellers to chase the endless summer and create lasting memories complete with lazy, rosé-filled afternoons.
Jetsetting to the heart of Provence where the Whispering Angel vineyards reside, Meredith and Le Méridien team took inspiration from the over 175 acres of planted vines as well as from the flavours of the Mediterranean coast where Le Meridien Beach Plaza is situated to ultimately create the perfect alchemy of summer’s most refreshing treats: rosé and sorbet.
Best enjoyed in the sun, especially at golden hour, the iconic pairing’s light & refreshing flavours make for the perfect libation on a sun-soaked day.
Inspired by the preciousness of caviar ice baths and the cocktail sidecar, this perfect scoop-and-sip combo is served in a custom-designed Sorbet Sidecar.
The glass cone, reflective of a classic ice cream cone, holds the sorbet scoop and sits atop a stemless wine glass filled with rosé.
The glassware duo is presented on a sunshine-colored tray, with an Au Soleil wooden cradle designed to hold the cone while sipping the rosé.
Driven by the success of the Au Soleil programme, this sorbet debut is part of the brand’s year-round signature b offering.
With plans to roll out a global Rosé programme in January 2024, the debut of Le Méridien’s rosé sorbet this summer will set the tone for guests to continue indulging their rosé palate any time of the year.
Le Méridien invites guests to chase the endless summer through its bookable Au Soleil package.
Travellers can enjoy complimentary scoops and leisurely breakfasts at select properties and of course, guests can outfit themselves with summer essentials thanks to Shop Le Méridien.
