A prestige limited edition and award winning cuvée from Charles Orban Champagne growers since 1770. This limited edition cuvée was created to celebrate The Who's 50th anniversary and Daltrey's career as a singer and actor, spanning more than 50 years. The Roger Daltrey cuvée represents a perfect expression of the three grape varieties grown in Champagne - Chardonnay (40%), Pinot Noir (45%) and Pinot Meunier (15%). The grapes are sourced mainly from the Vallee de la Marne from the 2012 harvest, with 20% of reserve wines.

The champagnes of Pierre Gimonnet & Fils are intricately assembled by masterful hands exclusively from enviably positioned and painstakingly tended old vines. Every cuvee sings its aspiration of 'precision, purity and minerality’, each speaking articulately of its place in the northern Cote des Blancs through expressive, chalky minerality, without one molecule of detail out of place.

The C + C Blanc de Blancs is blended from nine parcels across both north and south-facing hillsides in Cramant and Chouilly, including Les Robarts and Le Mont-Aigu. The oldest vines date back to 1951. The average depth of the soils of these parcels is marginally deeper than Oiry, with silty clay overlaying the chalk. In Suenen’s plots on Cramant’s eastern slope—Les Robarts, Les Basses Croix, Les Fourches du Nord, Les Vignes de Mardu—the soils measure one metre before the roots meet the chalk. In Chouilly, it’s closer to 60 cm. This extra depth, along with a good dose of southern exposure, makes for a more hedonistic wine. The blend is split between Cramant (70%) and Chouilly (30%). Although tempted to bottle each village separately, Suenen has found the two villages work even better as a blend; the textural finesse of Cramant marries perfectly to the more layered personality of Chouilly. Again, the wine aged on lees for nine months in enamelled tank (50%) and in used Burgundy oak barrels and demi-muid. It then aged for 30 months in bottle with no fining, no filtration and no cold stabilisation.
