Orpale is the prestige cuvée of all the grand cru blanc de blancs in Champagne. 2008 is a stellar vintage and this will age for 10+ years
De Saint Gall Orpale 2008 is a vintage prestige cuvée made exclusively from Grand Cru Chardonnay vineyards in the Côte des Blancs, including Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Cramant, Avize, and Oger. Crafted in exceptional years only, this Blanc de Blancs Champagne is aged for over a decade on lees, developing depth and complexity while maintaining the purity and precision of its terroir-driven fruit.
Aromas of lemon curd, brioche, and roasted almonds. The palate is refined and layered with flavours of citrus peel, white peach, hazelnut, and pastry cream, lifted by a fine mousse and mineral tension.
Contains sulphites.
Named after a legendary vineyard parcel, “Orpale” is the house’s flagship cuvée. The 2008 vintage is widely considered one of the best Champagne vintages of the 21st century, with wines showing remarkable structure, freshness, and ageing potential.
