Summer’s here! Here’s how to pair CHAMPAGNE DE SAINT-GALL champagnes with summertime fare…

Barbecues, salads, grilled vegetables, fresh fruit … When summer rolls in, our plates get lighter and adapt to the warmer season.

It’s a great time to crack open a few bottles of champagne, but you should try to match them with the drinking occasion. Here are our tips…

 

Served as an aperitif

Le Blanc de Blancs Premier Cru

100% Chardonnay – Côte des Blancs

Dosage : 8g/L – Bottled: 2017

 

 

With its freshness and minerality, our signature champagne, the Le Blanc de Blancs Premier Cru (100% Chardonnay), is particularly appreciated in summer, enjoyed as an aperitif with raw fish, gougères or fresh cheeses.

Back from the beach

Le Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Extra-Brut

100% Chardonnay – Côte des Blancs

Dosage : 5g/L – Bottled: 2017

 

 

With its very low dosage, our Le Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Extra-Brut brings you the bright character of the Chardonnay grape in complete transparency. Its lovely chiselled character, lemony notes, and mineral structure call for iodised flavours and seafood.

Enjoy it after a day on the beach, with a platter of seafood, or just a few oysters…

And don’t forget those barbecues!

Le Rosé Grand Cru

100% Pinot Noir – Montagne de Reims

Dosage : 8g/L – Bottled: 2018

 

 

Le Grand Cru Rosé reveals vinosity and complex aromas of red and black fruit. Originating exclusively from the village of Ambonnay, this powerful yet delicate Rosé de Saignée (produced using the bleeding/maceration method) pairs well with barbecued white meat (chicken, turkey, pork ribs) or some pink breast of duck. For vegetarians, it will work well with skewers of summer vegs in sweet spices.

Tea time (or whenever you fancy!)

Le Rosé Premier Cru

60% Chardonnay – 40% Pinot Noir

Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims

Dosage: 8g/L – Bottled: 2018

 

 

With notes of wild berries and Morello cherries, our lively Le Rosé Premier Cru is an invitation to indulge in some sweet summer delights!  Zesty and refreshing, it is the perfect companion to freshly chopped red fruit, eaten with the fingers, or a raspberry macaroon and a scoop of strawberry sorbet.

If there is a little still remaining in the bottle, enjoy it as a sundowner with some grilled prawns and shrimps just dipped in some light mayonnaise and eaten with the fingers again!
