Non-Vintage Exploration
Bottles individually purchased: £285
Looking to get acquainted with the world of Artisan Champagne?
At under £40 per bottle, this is the perfect, great value selection to get you started! With two Chardonnays, a Pinot Noir, a Meunier, and a couple of very different blends for good measure, this case allows you to explore the region and discover where your tastes lie.
Bonnaire Terroirs
Classic Côte des Blancs Chardonnay from a clutch of excellent Grand Cru villages. Clean and chalky with citrus fruits, nice weight and texture with a delicate mousse.
Remi Leroy Extra Brut
No exploration of styles and regions of Champagne would be complete without a trip to the Aube. This wine from Remi Leroy is one of our most popular cuvées of all time. A rich blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay it's bursting with character.
Beaugrand Carte Blanche Non Dose
On to the second Chardonnay of the case but this time we head to the village of Montgueux – the most southerly chalk outcrop in Champagne, marooned alone just West of Troyes. Unlike Côte des Blancs Chardonnay, this cuvée brings much more in the way of tropical fruit and depth, without losing that archetypal freshness.
Simon Rion Originel
The first classic three grape blend and also our first cuvée from the Montage de Reims. It's a wonderfully fresh and fruity, approachable Champagne; playful on the front end with loads of liquorice and tutti-fruitti.
Famille Delouvin Meunier Perpetual
No NV selection would be complete without a Meunier... and this is a truly unique example. Coming from the heart of the Marne Valley, this wine is 100% made from a solera dating back to 1992! As you'd expect there is a lovely depth and weight to it, but it never loses that lovely fruity freshness.
Pierre Deville Primitif
We round off the case with a Pinot heavy blend from one of the key Pinot producing villages in all of Champage – Verzy, Grand Cru. It's lovely and fresh but with all those delicious dark fruits you associate with this grape, alongside the finesse and elegance that are the hallmarks of the village.
Please note: Occasionally, due to stock availability, we may need to substitute bottles. In this situation, the replacement cuvées will be in the same style, and of the same or greater value.
