Michel Guilleminot Blanc de Noirs comes from the very south of Champagne in the beautiful Vallee de l'Aube. A lovely single grower champagne made by the 4th generation Guilleminot family.

"The best vines in the vineyard have produced a sensational, crimson, light, brambly red wine with a hint of raspberry and silky tannins."

Expressive, vibrant nose with perfumed, floral notes enhancing blackberry, mulberry and plum aromas. Mint, mocha and exotic spice layers unfurl, leading to a rich, spicy, robustly structured palate.

"...one that FVD's Esme Johnstone, à la sungazer, believes is richer and more profound than the 2020 incarnation and already very approachable."

A classic Pauillac expressed entirely through estate vineyard fruit and by the same winemaking team as châteaus grand vin label itself.

Pale gold in colour with citrus, toasted almonds and floral aromas. A full-bodied, creamy palate with nutty and lemon citrus notes. Good value and unmistakably serious white Burgundy.

Another very pretty, expressive 2021 with pronounced blackberry and plum aromas and an underlying green-leaf freshness.

Taken from the estates best plots and aged on its lees for five years. This prestige Blanc de Noirs will challenge many of the Grandes Marques on everything but price. ...

Rosé champagne has a cachet and excitement about it, perhaps because it is rarer. The Guilleminot Rosé champagne made with their own Champenois pinot noir is a real treat.

One of the great new generations of small growers in Burgundy. Here, nectarine, honey and butterscotch notes leap forth with a notably lifted vibrancy and zing.

Elegant, delicate and fresh, it works particularly well with richer foods.

"There was enough fruit to make use of a good mix of barrel shapes and sizes, as St-Romain was not much frosted. Pale colour with a light green tint. 

It is full, rich yet fresh, and loved by those who prefer a richer Champagne style. Pol Roger is beautifully balanced and oozes class. Perfect for all special occasions.

What does this one tastes like? Glorious! Dark, rich, juicy, mouthfilling with a beautifully-judged, delicately grippy structure.

"Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2017 Les Tourelles de Longueville gives aromas of crushed blackberries, warm plums and mulberries with accents of bay leaves, garrigue and cinnamon..."

Very stylish and sophisticated, with classic Napa richness and texture. Warm, intense blackcurrant fruit - heady, spicy, and almost hedonistic.

The House of Billecart Salmon is one of the few remaining Champagne houses to be owned by the original founding family. They continue to make rich and complex wines from ...

A restrained, yet unmistakably serious Gigondas from the Famille Perrin. It does not get a lot better than this.
