Jean Pernet Cuvee Blanc de Noirs Champagne
Champagne, France
1 x 75cl bottle
Domaine Jean Pernet boasts its humble origins from the family vineyard located in Mesnil Sur Oger at the heart of the Champagne region on the Côte des Blancs, prestigious Grand Cru terroir.
The first traces of wine-growing in the family ancestry dates back to the 17th century, however it was only in 1959 that Jean & Huguette Pernet founded Maison Jean Pernet, drawing upon the expertise and a know-how that has been transmitted from generation to generation. This bold and innovative decision to introduce the very first “champagne Jean Pernet” label laid the foundations of the modern day Champagne Jean Pernet brand. Joined in the early 1980s by their two sons Frédéric & Christophe Pernet, the family estate grew tremendously, with both brothers silently pushing the boundaries in Champagne.
Louis Roederer
Champagne, France
1 x 75cl bottle
92 Points Robert Parkers Wine Advocate: "The NV Brut Premier is a gorgeous wine that stands head and shoulders above the vast majority of wines in its price range. Apparently, it is quite possible to make great Champagne that doesn't cost a small fortune!"
Taittinger Brut Reserve NV
Champagne, France
1 x 75cl bottle
Very appealing lemon green colour with aromas of fresh pear, fig and almond with a hint of orange flower. A light swirl of the glass brings out richer notes of honey and freshly baked bread. Elegance and finesse typify this wonderful champagne. Superb quality. Rich, deep, complex - all these words describe this delicious classic champagne. A time elegant aroma with buttery biscuit flavours supported by a firm mousse. Deliciously fruity - and all very harmonious. A top buy.
Champagne Hautbois
Champagne, France
1 x 75cl bottle
A beautifully pure, elegant wine, with a refreshing lemony aroma and a delicate mousse. Dry and with plenty of substance.
"There's an aromatic floral note to the flavours of apricot, ripe apple, smoky mineral, kumquat and lemon zest in this firm bubbly, which is fine-grained and balanced, with a lively, moderate finish." - 90 points, Wine Spectator, November 2011.
Heavenly stuff with creamy buttered biscuit on the nose and palate. It tastes like great white burgundy, but with bubbles”
