Why this wine
All Chardonnay from a house that has been making Champagne since 1757 and advertising it almost never. Precise and citrus-led, with enough lees character to give it weight. The quality-to-price ratio here is among the best in this selection.
Our advantages:
Description
How it tastes
Aromatically rich, full and creamy with delicate floral and peppery notes, then fresh and citrus-driven with elegant minerality. All Chardonnay.
The producer
Abelé 1757 is among the oldest houses in Champagne and one of the least marketed, which keeps the price honest. Whole clusters gently pressed, fermented in stainless steel to hold freshness, aged on lees with 20% reserve wines in the blend.
Food and drinking
Good with seafood, salads and poultry & pork. Ready now, and will hold for a few years yet. Serve at 8–10°C.
