Philippe Glavier La Grâce d'Alphaël Grand Cru NV (Half)

AOC Champagne, France

100% Chardonnay | 12% ABV

£19.50

We are delighted to present this French Champagne made with 100% Chardonnay grapes. It is the same wine as their Zero Dosage but with 3g/l of sugar at bottling. This finishing touch creates a slightly rounder and richer palate which remains notably chiselled. This cuvée is named after Alphaël, the angel of light and knowledge.

This delivers notes of zesty citrus fruits, lemongrass, apples and almonds. The palate offers fine bubbles that lead to an impressive finish.

Service: Serve chilled at 8° to 10°C.

Food Pairing: It goes well with light dishes, with firm, crispy, or crunchy textures, often salty and quite complex in terms of aroma. Ceviche of monkfish, Red mullet with lemon, Fish or crab toasts, Sea rillettes, Fresh oysters, and fish carpaccio with green lemon.
