Established in 1836, Madame Pommery is credited with creating the first vintage brut style of Champagne in 1874, at a time when most champagnes were excessively sweetened with sugar. This revolutionary dry style set the benchmark for the rest of Champagne and it is in this spirit that the style of Pommery endures; with each cuvée displaying sublime elegance, finesse and freshness. Pommery is one of the few Champagne Houses that produces their large formats in the actual bottle in order to allow for optimal ageing.

Louis Roederer is a highly respected Champagne producer located in the historic city of Reims. The renowned Champagne house, founded in the late 1700s, is still owned and operated by the Roederer family. Their signature style consists of an equal blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, with a touch of Pinot Meunier, which comprises approximately one-fifth of the blend. Louis Roederer's most famous wine is Cristal, a prestigious Champagne that has captured the hearts of wine enthusiasts worldwide. The house was founded in 1833 and aimed to capture foreign markets, particularly Russia. Roederer became the wine of choice for the Russian royal family, and Cristal was created for Tsar Alexander II. Louis Roederer acquired grand cru vineyards in Champagne in 1845, which was unusual for the time as most houses were buying grapes from growers. Today, the Roederer vineyards encompass around 240 hectares of land, with around 25% managed biodynamically. This commitment to sustainable farming practices is a testament to the house's dedication to producing high-quality wines that are both delicious and environmentally responsible.

It is a harmonious symphony of flavors and textures that lingers on the palate, leaving a lasting impression.

A rare and highly sought-after cuvée, La Closerie Grand Cru is an exciting addition to the Prévost portfolio.

Maker | Jerome Prévost: Jérôme Prévost is a winemaker whose artistry and philosophy revolve around purity, patience, and a deep connection to his terroir. Based in the picturesque village of Gueux, on the edge of the Montagne de Reims, Prévost is a micro grower-producer known for his commitment to crafting exceptional wines from his two-hectare plot of 40-year-old Meunier vines. His journey into winemaking began in 1998 when his close friend, Anselme Selosse, encouraged him to start making wine, offering him the use of his winery until 2003. Since then, Prévost has continued to refine his winemaking techniques, initially producing his wines in the garage behind his home. Prévost’s philosophy is rooted in minimal intervention and a profound respect for the natural expression of the land. His wines are a reflection of his belief that the terroir should shine through in every bottle, with no excess manipulation. He focuses on producing a single wine each year from his estate and the Meunier grape variety, allowing the wines to evolve and develop their complexity over time. His approach to winemaking has earned him a cult following, and his wines are revered for their complexity, energy, and longevity. By limiting his production and focusing on the intrinsic character of his vineyards, Prévost offers a rare and authentic expression of Champagne, capturing the essence of his unique terroir. Vineyard | Jerome Prevost La Closerie: The La Closerie vineyard, located in Gueux, is the heart of Jérôme Prévost’s winemaking. This vineyard is planted with old, low-yielding Meunier vines, grown on clay and chalk-rich soils that give the wines their characteristic minerality and texture. Initially, Prévost focused solely on his estate fruit, but after the frost damage in 2017, he expanded his sources, purchasing fruit from neighboring plots in Gueux. Despite this, the terroir remains consistent, with all the vineyards being farmed organically and following Prévost’s strict winemaking philosophy. The soil composition, along with the pre-industrial planting techniques, ensures that the vines have deep root systems that produce concentrated, flavourful fruit. Prévost’s careful vineyard management practices include organic farming methods and a focus on sustainability, allowing the vineyards to thrive and evolve naturally. The La Closerie vineyard embodies the essence of Prévost’s winemaking philosophy, where the balance between nature and craftsmanship results in wines with exceptional character and complexity.

Grand Siècle is a Prestige Cuvée that is a unique concept, different from the others. It is the only Cuvée de Prestige in Champagne based on the blend and not on the vintage. The vintage in Champagne is generally considered synonymous with excellence for Prestige Cuvées. Conversely, at Laurent-Perrier, their belief is that the art of blending can allow them to create what nature will never give us: the perfect year. The expression of the perfect year is that of a great Champagne wine that has developed a deep intensity and aromatic complexity, while managing to preserve its freshness and acidity over time. On this idea Grand Siècle was born in 1959. To create this wine, Laurent-Perrier will rely on the characteristics of the great vintage years of Champagne: freshness, structure, finesse. Intense pale yellow colour with an intense nose with mixed aromas of candied citrus fruit, honey, summer flowers and a few toasted notes. The soft attack on the palate coats it with the sensation of silkiness. The finish has the freshness of candied citrus fruit bringing with it length and tension.
