Drinking Window: 2023 - 2025
De Saint Gall is the flagship brand of the Union Champagne cooperative, makers of this Chardonnay-Pinot Noir rosé and a Tradition Brut NV which have both joined M&S's premium Collection range. With the fresher 2018 vintage as base wine (the Tradition uses 2015), it boasts tart strawberry and crisp red apple, alongside brioche notes on a lean yet creamy palate. Drinking well now but should cellar well for a few years if you like your Champagnes with more toasty complexity.
