De Saint-Gall Blanc de Blancs 1er Cru NV (750ML)

93 DE / 91 WE / 90 WA

Silver Medal 2018 Decanter World Wine Awards

Bounteous yellow fruit aromas and rich, dense, textural palate of spice and generous fruit held high and long by engaging savoury quality. - Decanter

Light in color, but full of zest. De Saint Gall is an underrated producer that delivers the goods year after year. Here the scent of vanilla sets the stage for light, pure flavors if banana, pear, anise and cinnamon. It's a little lean but in no way mean. Perfect balance and acidity render it beyond ordinary.  - Wine Enthusiast

The NV Brut Blanc de Blancs Premier Cru displays a creamy, intensely fruity and slightly reductive/yeasty bouquet of white fruit and floral/herbal aromas. Full-bodied and very elegant on the palate, this is a round, lush and textured yet tightly structured Chardonnay with a firm yet somewhat drying finish. - Wine Advocate

De Saint Gall comes from the grower –owned cartel that supplies most of the 1er Cru and Grand Cru base wine used for Dom Perignon and Ruinart. It is a delicious, tactile 1er Cru that delivers far above its modest price tag.
