Louis Roederer is one of the very top Champagne houses in the world, and their Cristal is one of the most highly sought prestige cuvees. The cuvee and the distinctive flat, clear lead crystal glass bottle design was first made in 1876 to satisfy the demanding tastes and safety needs of Tsar Alexander II. Produced only during the best years, when the Chardonnay (around 40%) and Pinot noir (around 60%) grapes have attained perfect maturity, it is aged for 6 years in Louis Roederer’s cellars and left for a further 8 months after dégorgement, but the recipe is slightly changed...

A very popular prestige cuvée from Taittinger, "Comtes de Champagne" uses 100% Chardonnay only from Grand Cru vineyards and the juice comes exclusively from their first pressing - resulting in the creation of the complex and elegant Champagne that we love and which is capable of aging for decades. Despite the amazing quality - on par with those from prestige champagne houses such as Krug, Dom Perignon, Cristal and Salon - Taittinger still remains at amazingly attractive prices nowadays.   Today we are pleased to offer the new release of Taittinger’s Comtes de Champagne 2011. A pre-release offer which will arrive...

Whilst we are all so familiar with the fabulous Cristal that Louis Roederer makes, the Champagne house has crafted two new wines that allows fine wine drinkers to discover another facet of their unique winemaking expertise - Camille Charmont (rouge) and Camille Volibarts (blanc), named after managing director & owner Frederic Rouzaud's great-grandmother whom he so admired.  The project started in 2002 when Roederer replaced the 0.43ha (1-acre) Charmont plot with Burgundy and Alsace clones of Pinot Noir, specially selected for still-wine making; and the first wines were crafted back in 2014 but their Chef de Cave Lécaillon was not...

The world’s most famous Champagne and simply the most popular prestigious Grande Marque, Dom Perignon is a luxury cuvee offering some of the best presentations of Champagne. Their champagne is best enjoyed when they are mature, as it has been made with a reductive style that usually takes a very long time to evolve in the bottle, in which it becomes tremendously refined and complex. Today we have a few selections of Dom Perignon including two magnums - one from 1999 and one from 2000 - and also a standard 75cl from 1996 that is packed in individual giftboxes. The...

"La Remissonne" is Philipponnat's Mareuil-sur-Ay cuvée with its first release being the 2009 vintage. It is a 100% Pinot Noir from a single premier cru plot just adjacent to Clos des Goisses. The cuvee is crafted using the first press juice and vinified using traditional methods to avoid premature oxidation. There is 4.5g/L dosage to maintain the balance between fershness and vinosity without masking the wine's character and purity. It is aged for 7-9 years in the cellars to develop its maximum complexity and to highlight the wine's secondary and tertiary aromas. Only 2,590 bottles were produced (equivalent to only 432...
