A blend of roughly two-thirds Chardonnay and one-third Pinot Noir, all from Premier Cru villages, De Saint-Gall’s Le Tradition delivers a rounder style of Champagne while still maintaining a balancing edge of acidity. It is a fine choice as a celebratory aperitif but also holds up nicely to fish or chicken filets in a cream sauce.
