An ideal Champagne to mark the transition from aperitif to the first dish of a meal. A wine held together by explosive creaminess. Hazelnuts, dried apricot and vanilla notes are dominated by light tobacco and shortbread.
Out of the 40 crus comprising Pommery Brut Royal, only 20 of the finest are selected for Pommery Brut Apanage. The Chardonnay grape has an assertive presence. Brut Apanage is left to mature in chalk cellars on the Pommery Estate for a further six months (4 years in total) to allow the subtlety and finesse of Pommery wines to slowly emerge. True to the tradition of Pommery Nature 1874, the dosage reflects the wine’s blend. It has a slightly lower dosage than Pommery Brut Royal.
Super ripe very smooth dry red, with just a hint of Cherries in that Italian style and You are able to drink this wine with or without food, Very good value at $20.
We've been fans of their Syrah and Chardonnay for some time and this is another go-to product we'll add to the list.
Light in colour, but plenty of depth and flavour and pleasingly dry.
Highly recommended.
I haven’t tried every bottle in this selection yet, however, so far they are all very tasty. I’m a Chardonnay lover, always on the look out for a dryish not sweet wine and these are just right for me. An excellent mixed case and we’ll priced.
