Expect chalk, lemon and green apple up front. Brioche brings the extra detail; it runs into a long finish.
At the table: Cold bottle, salty food, done. Put out prawns, bread and butter, olives and soft cheese, then let everyone get stuck in. The bubbles clean up the rich bites, the chalky edge keeps it sharp, and the brioche gives it enough weight to hang around.
Origin: Champagne, France
Grape: Chardonnay
