100% Chardonnay
Bubbly buttered toast - like fizzy St. Aubin. While the flagship release of Champagne house Gallimard is a Blanc de Noirs, their Quintessence cuvee proves amply they can also do a mean Blanc de Blancs - the depth in this pure Chardonnay bottling is pretty impressive. With a low dosage of 5.5gm/l it qualifies as extra brut - which is where the dry, crisp texture comes from. A delightful food champagne. (NT 21/10/20)
