Pharrell Brut Champagne (Blue Box) 750 ml

This is a brut Champagne released under the Pharrell name and presented in the blue box the bottle is known by. Brut is the dry end of the Champagne scale, which is why it works as well before dinner as it does through it, and the packaging makes clear this is a bottle bought to be given as much as opened. Expect the markers of the style: green apple and citrus on the nose, a fine steady bead, a palate of orchard fruit and toasted brioche, and a crisp dry finish that keeps the sweetness in check. Serve it properly chilled in a tulip glass rather than a flute.
