Champagne De St Gall
These wines are produced by the Union de Champagne which is a co-operative of growers from the Cotes des Blancs. They are the largest collection of Premier and Grand Cru grape producers in the region. Historically a huge percentage of the production from this winery has been sold to the 'big' named Champagne houses, a smaller percentage given back to the growers to drink or sell as they deem fit, and a tiny percentage is sold under their own label. Now they wish to be known for the wine they produce in their own right. The result is wines of exceptional quality at a fraction of the price of the better known houses.

DE ST GALL Grand Cru (1996)   Orpale

DE ST GALL   Grand Cru   (1996)

100% Chardonnay

From Grand Cru sites in Avize, Oger & Mesnil sur Oger.

A rich, full creamy nose with mature chardonnay fruits throughout. Lovely structure, particularly the acidity - very elegant. Vanilla & toasted brioche on the palate - a slight green streak runs through the middle, but this gives it a lovely refreshing edge. A fine & full finish.

£49.00

DE ST GALL 1er Cru (NV)   Brut

DE ST GALL 1er Cru (NV)

66% Chardonnay / 33% Pinot Noir

Light, shortbread, biscuity notes on the nose. Citrus fruit, clean & crisp on the palate with light honey & floral blossom hints. A good crisp finish with a very slight hint of creamy richness on the end.

£19.50

DE ST GALL 1er Cru Blanc de Blancs (NV)   Blanc de Blancs

DE ST GALL 1er Cru Blanc de Blancs (NV)

100% Chardonnay

Lovely exciting pineapple, grapefruity, citrus notes on the nose. Elegant, fine structure with a dainty lime palate & hints of apple crunch. Great length - really quite refined.

£21.00

DE ST GALL ROSE (NV)   Brut

DE ST GALL ROSE (NV)

50% Chardonnay / 33% Pinot Noir / 17% Pinot Noir red wine

Quite an orange onion skin rose colour. Floral, marmalade crushed fruit on the nose carried through on to palate. A bit of structure underneath - firm and serious style rather than a fruit bomb. A gentle sweet fruit touch to the finish - showing some crisp meatier pinot character.

£26.00
