A special boxed collection of six bottles of Grand Marque Champagnes, Moet & Chandon and Veuve Cliequot. For centuries, these two champagne houses have been symbols of refinement, luxury and celebration. Famous admirers come in the shape of Napoleon Bonaparte and the marquis de Pompadour to tennis legend Roger Federer and Queen Elizabeth. Both houses were established in the 1700's and continue to be emblematic of celebration and luxury today. 

Moet & Chandon
Reims, Champagne, France
3 x 75cl bottles
Recognised everywhere and like all good non-vintage Champagne it is consistently reliable. Bright fruitiness, seductive palate, elegant maturity is how the world's most loved Champagne is described!
Maison Moët was established in 1743 by Claude Moët, a wine trader from the city of Épernay. But it was Claude’s grandson, Jean-Rémy Moët who is credited with championing Champagne on a global scale. Nearly a century later in 1832, Claude’s great-grandson Victor Moët’s partnership with his brother-in-law Pierre-Gabriel Chandon de Briailles resulted in a merging of the two family names.


Veuve Clicquot
Reims, Champagne, France 
3 x 75cl bottles
Up there with the best of the Grande Marques, Veuve is made in a full-bodied style with lots of toastiness after a few years aging. The Clicquot House was founded in 1772 by Philippe Clicquot, a Reims-based banker and textile merchant. In 1805, following the death of his son, Philippe’s daughter-in-law, Barbe Nicole Ponsardin, took over the family business and saved it from near bankruptcy. The house would become known as Veuve Clicquot, or “widow” Clicquot in English.
