Champagne Baron Albert L'Universelle Brut: A Delightful Sparkler for Every Occasion (375ml)

A Taste of Tradition in Every Glass

The Champagne Baron Albert L'Universelle Brut is a delightful sparkling wine, perfect for adding a touch of elegance to celebrations, casual gatherings, or simply enjoying a glass on its own. This non-vintage Champagne, a blend of various years, offers a consistent and crowd-pleasing taste profile. Crafted in the heart of Champagne, the Marne Valley, L'Universelle Brut is a blend dominated by Pinot Meunier, a grape known for its fruitiness and roundness. The addition of Chardonnay brings finesse and elegance, while a touch of Pinot Noir adds structure and complexity.

A Feast for the Senses: Unveiling the L'Universelle Brut's Delights

Visual: Pour yourself a glass of L'Universelle Brut and admire its pale straw colour. The lively bubbles dance upwards, creating a captivating spectacle in the glass.

Aroma: As you bring the glass to your nose, a bouquet of fresh aromas unfolds. Delicate scents of citrus fruits like lemon and grapefruit mingle with hints of white flowers. A touch of minerality adds a pleasant complexity to the nose.

Palate: The first sip reveals a delightful effervescence that gently cleanses the palate and whets the appetite. Flavours of orchard fruits like pear and apple come to the fore, interwoven with a touch of honey and brioche. The influence of Pinot Meunier shines through with its characteristic roundness and juicy character. The finish is clean and refreshing, leaving you wanting another sip.

The Perfect Serve: Unlocking the Full Potential of L'Universelle Brut

To fully appreciate the delicate flavours and aromas of L'Universelle Brut, it's best served chilled, ideally between 8°C and 10°C. For a truly special occasion, consider using a Champagne flute to help preserve the bubbles and enhance the tasting experience. The 375ml bottle size is perfect for individual enjoyment or sharing with a close friend.

Food Pairings: A Match Made in Heaven

L'Universelle Brut's versatility makes it an excellent choice for a variety of foods. Here are some suggestions to create unforgettable culinary experiences:

  • Canapés and Appetisers: Kick off your meal with a selection of light bites that complement the Champagne's refreshing character. Opt for smoked salmon blinis, prawn cocktails, or delicate pastries with goat cheese and fig jam.

     
  • Seafood: The Champagne's acidity cuts beautifully through the richness of seafood dishes. Pair it with grilled scallops, oysters on the half shell, or a creamy lobster bisque.

     
  • White Meats: L'Universelle Brut complements the delicate flavours of white meats like roast chicken, turkey, or pork. The Champagne's effervescence also helps to balance the richness of creamy sauces.

     
  • Salads: Liven up your salads with a glass of L'Universelle Brut. The Champagne's acidity brightens the flavours of fresh greens, vegetables, and lighter proteins like grilled shrimp or chicken.

     
  • Cheese: Explore a cheese board featuring a variety of textures and flavours. Opt for creamy Brie, nutty Gruyère, or a tangy goat cheese. The Champagne's acidity will beautifully complement the richness of the cheese.
