De Saint Gall, So Dark Grand Cru Millesime, 2016

De Saint Gall So Dark Grand Cru Millésime 2016 is a bold and refined Champagne made entirely from Grand Cru vineyards, offering a striking balance of power, precision, and elegance. With Pinot Noir from Ambonnay and Bouzy providing depth and structure, and Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs adding freshness and mineral lift, this is a cuvée with real character and pedigree.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a luminous golden hue with a fine, persistent mousse. The nose opens with layers of small red berries, spice, and subtle toasted notes, creating an inviting and complex aromatic profile. On the palate, the wine is precise and beautifully balanced, combining richness, tension, and finesse in equal measure. The finish is long, lively, and energetic, with enough depth to evolve gracefully over time. Its Grand Cru origin and structured style suggest very good aging potential.

Production
This vintage cuvée is sourced exclusively from Grand Cru classified vineyards in Champagne. The Pinot Noir comes from Ambonnay and Bouzy in the Montagne de Reims, while the Chardonnay is harvested from Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Oger, Avize, and Cramant in the Côte des Blancs. The blend and vineyard selection are designed to combine structure, volume, and vinous depth with freshness and mineral precision.

Food & Serving
An excellent match for lobster, smoked salmon, poultry with truffle, mature cheeses, or charcuterie with richness and umami. Serve chilled at around 8-10°C to preserve its freshness and complexity; decanting is not recommended for Champagne, but allowing it a few minutes in the glass can help the aromatics open up.
