Veuve Clicquot La Grande Dame is name in honour of the famed and undoubted Champagne pioneer, widow Clicquot. Widowed at the tender age of 28, Madame Clicquot continued her late husband's work and is the sole reason why her Champagne house is held in the high esteem that it is today. The 1998 La Grande Dame is a wine of pure beauty and power. A majority blend of Pinot Noir, the vintage conditions are clearly visible in the glass with flavours of peach, apricot and touch of brioche and nuttiness. A true classic for the ages.

The 2017 Champagne Suenen Montigny sur Vesle La Grande Vigne Meunier (Disg. TBA) is a true reflection of its terroir, showcasing the unique character of the Montigny sur Vesle region in Champagne, France. This wine, crafted by the renowned Suenen estate, is a stunning example of a single varietal Meunier champagne from the exceptional 2017 vintage. On the nose, delicate aromas of ripe red apples, juicy pears, and fragrant white flowers dance gracefully with hints of toasted brioche and subtle mineral notes. The pale golden hue in the glass is a sight to behold, leading to a palate that is both elegant and complex. Flavors of crisp apples and pears are joined by a touch of honeyed sweetness and a refreshing acidity, balanced perfectly by a creamy, lingering finish. This champagne is a true masterpiece, showcasing the skill and passion of Suenen's winemaking. It is a must-try for all champagne lovers.

Dom Pérignon is the most famous Champagne in the world, and for good reason. The bouquet sparkles with delicate fresh violets in a setting of white peaches. The soft delicate flavours continue while the senses are tickled by the most delicate of fine bubbles. Though this is such a fine delicate wine, the complexity is astounding, along with its length. Stunning.

It’s a stunning, racy example of Avize, a little deeper than the Terre de Vertus, although more delicate and less fleshy than the Vieille Vigne du Levant.
