No wine symbolizes celebration like Champagne. And for decades - in fact centuries - 'Champagne' has immediately evoked the luxury brand image of an exclusive group of long-established 'Grandes Marques', for true connoisseurs things have changed.
While the Grandes Marques admirably maintain their reputation for consistency and reliability in association with production on a grand scale, one of the most exhilarating new developments in the world of wine is the emergence of small (sometimes very small) independent Champagne growers who are dedicated to producing terroir-expressive wines from their own small vineyards. Of course it doesn't hurt that many of the 'small vineyards' in question are superbly situated family plots that have been lovingly farmed for many generations, including some of the finest Grands Crus in all of Champagne. Suddenly we are blessed with a diverse array of distinctive wines that would have seemed too much to hope for a generation ago.
Today’s offer has a wine for nearly any champagne lover, covering a diverse array of styles.

James Suckling, August 2023
Deep nose of preserved and candied lemons with bread dough and toasted baguette. Concentrated and well structured, but the chalky minerality and the lively fine mousse give this a wonderful brightness and energy. Long really crystalline finish. From vines planted between 1911 and 1982 in the Terres des Buissons, Bauves and Champ de Prevot sites. Bottled in April 2017 and disgorged in November 2022

James Suckling, July 2022
This delightful Blanc de Blancs marries excellent depth of character – all the citrus, crisp pear and floral aromas of chardonnay – with charm. Properly dry, but very harmonious, thanks to the excellent balance of citrusy freshness and creaminess. Long, clean finish, accentuated by the lively mousse. |
