The all-important Q - what wine should I drink as I cook this, whilst I eat it and open another bottle afterwards!! This one was SIMPLE. Chalk Hill Fiano from McLaren Vale. I picked this one up from winedirect.com.au from my buddy Dan - a half-decent dude who might steer you in the right direction when choosing wine. ;)

A full flavoured Champagne this comprising 60% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir and 5% Pinot Meunier from the Vallée de la Marne. The wine is aged on lees in a bottle for a minimum of 2 years. As a result, autolytic breakdown of the yeast cells is well underway and imparts a lovely brioche character to the fruit which comprises powerful green apples, a lick of lemon and a hint of grilled nuts.

A superb producer from the Vallée de la Marne who specialise in ripe fruited Champagne fermented in stainless steel and then treated to at least 2 years sur lie in bottle prior to disgorgement. This cuvée also benefits from containing over 30% of reserve wine, which in itself represents the best portion of each vintage's grapes.
