Latin – “Distinct”
a•li•a [are-lee-uh]
OVERVIEW
Alia is built on a simple ethos – It takes time. We make Alia solely from Chardonnay grapes that are given time to reach their full potential before we harvest them. This ensures that Alia will mature into a truly distinctive ‘blanc de blanc’.
TASTING NOTES
Light gold. Strong persistent mousse of fine bubbles. Pronounced brioche and slight toast on the nose, with citrus and floral hints. Also light melted butter aroma. The palate has good, firm body with full, rich flavours and balanced acidity. Complex flavours with apple, yellow plums and citrus fruits, good length and a slight biscuity finish. Deliciously refreshing yet rich and complex. A great expression of the Chardonnay grape variety, with a distinctly English edge adding further interest.
WHEN TO DRINK
First class as an apéritif – refreshing, appetizing and interesting. Perfect with the ‘meatier’ types of fish and seafood, such as sea bass, turbot and lobster. Can also accompany some desserts, particularly fruit based tarts and can work well with lemon meringue pie!
