Krug Vintage is one of the true Champagne icons and still maintains that lofty reputation today. A very charismatic fresh nose, promise of natural intensity and elegance with strong presence of fruits, fruits of all types. A diverse bouquet of orange aromas with some notes of liquorice and light chocolate biscuit can be enjoyed.On the palate, astonishing, balanced and delicate with significant fresh, tropical, wild and crystalised fruits. It is a hymn to fruit: red, white and citrus fruit with notes of cassis, chocolate, candied-orange peel, cocoa beans, honey with hints of smoke and toast enhanced by a vibrant, persistent long finish.

Krug is well and truly one of the great wine experiences in the world. It is an exercise in balance and poise, being at once as fine and delicate as crystal and rich with meaty nuttiness. With an almost ethereal bead, there is plenty of toast, dried fruit and hazelnut complexity. Magnificent!

Cristal is a remarkably balanced and refined champagne whose length is inimitable. It has a silky texture and fruity aromas, complemented by a powerful mineral quality with white fruit and citrus notes. Cristal is a wine that keeps well: it can be conserved for over twenty years without losing its freshness and character. Produced uniquely during the best years, when the Chardonnay (around 40%) and Pinot noir (around 60%) grapes have attained perfect maturity, Cristal is aged for 6 years in Louis Roederers cellars and left for a further 8 months after dégorgement. Today Louis Roederer remains one of the very few remaining family owned Houses in Champagne with 7th generation Frederic Rouzaud at the helm. From the 100 hectares acquired in 1850 by Louis Roederer, the Domaine today extends over 240 hectares averaging 98% on the official Echelle classification. All vineyard acquisitions follow Louis Roedererâs strict 70% policy â that is ownership of at least 70% of the total production. All Louis Roederer Cuvees are Estate grown with the exception of Brut Premier which is 60% estate fruit and 40% fruit sourced from long-term contracted growers. Louis Roederer farm 65 Ha of their Domaine vineyards under a biodynamic and organic regime as part of what Chef de Cave Jean-Baptiste Lécaillon says is a work in progress. In 2012 Louis Roederer became the largest biodynamic producer in Champagne.

Product Description: The La Closerie Grand Cru LC22 NV from Jérôme & Agnès Prévost is an extraordinary, limited-edition Champagne that exemplifies the pinnacle of craftsmanship and terroir. A rare and highly sought-after cuvée, La Closerie Grand Cru is an exciting addition to the Prévost portfolio. First introduced in 2019, this cuvée has evolved significantly, particularly with the 2021 vintage, where it included fruit from the family’s own Grand Cru plots in Le Mesnil. The vines in these ancient plots, planted in the 1960s, thrive on Lutetian limestone, offering a distinct mineral profile that is reflected in the wine’s complexity and depth. The blend is a delicate harmony of Chardonnay from Le Mesnil and Pinot Noir from Puisieulx, meticulously farmed to ensure full ripeness and the highest quality. The vineyards, tended to with exceptional care, are cultivated with a commitment to low yields and optimal balance, a testament to Prévost’s dedication to excellence in every vintage. The result is a Champagne that is both hedonistic and precise—creamy, rich, and opulent, with layers of stone fruit, roasted nuts, and citrus oil, wrapped in a silky, mineral-driven structure that defines its long, seductive finish. A rare and compelling release, this Champagne offers the ultimate indulgence for connoisseurs and collectors alike. 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. Tasting Notes: Nose Complex & Inviting A beautiful complexity, with aromas of creamy stone fruit such as ripe peaches and apricots, entwined with roasted nuts, citrus oil, and delicate hints of toasted brioche. Subtle minerality hints at the ancient Lutetian limestone soils, adding depth and sophistication. Palate Opulent & Silky Rrich and full-bodied, layering flavours of stone fruit, roasted hazelnuts, and a touch of citrus zest. Balanced, elegant, and incredibly smooth, with a vibrant acidity that lifts the richness and carries the flavours seamlessly. Finish Mineral & Long Long, delicate, and mineral-driven, with a soft but persistent citrus and nutty aftertaste that lingers. The combination of ripe fruit, creamy texture, and mineral backbone leaves a lasting impression of refinement and balance.
