Each producer has its own style, personified by their non-vintage cuvée, blended from bought-in grapes from selected vineyards that contribute to the style of the house. Champagne wines owe their prestige and worldwide renown to the talent and expertise of these Champagne Houses who are fiercely committed to protecting their appellation. Originally founded in 1882 and known then as the Syndicat du Commerce des Vins de Champagne, the UMC prosecuted anyone who misused the name ‘Champagne’, whether in France or abroad, and it invariably won its case.

Attending the lunch was the beautiful Odette Pol Roger as well as the Prime Minister, Winston Churchill, with whom she struck up an instant rapport. A friendship was born which continued until Churchill’s death, creating links between the Pol Roger and Churchill families which are still as strong to this day. The pressures of his post sadly prevented Churchill from ever paying a visit to 44 Avenue de Champagne, the home of Champagne Pol Roger, but he nonetheless proclaimed it “the most drinkable address in the world”. As recompense for breaking his promise to visit he sent Odette a copy of his Memoirs inscribed “Cuvée de Réserve, mise en bouteille au Chateau de Chartwell”. He even named one of his racehorses “Pol Roger” and the filly strode to victory at Kempton Park in 1953, Coronation Year. The 21st vintage of the Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill is an alluring mid-yellow-gold with a fine stream of bubbles, both characteristics of the length of time this wine has spent in the famously cool Pol Roger cellars. The nose opens with notes of spices and pepper. A good intensity of black fruit follows, showing the fine concentration and density of the wine. The complexity is obvious: a bouquet of dried fruit and hazelnut overlayed with notes of exotic fruits. The aromas are particularly open and impressive. On the palate, candied fruit notes accompany hints of pastries, brioche and cocoa, broad and mouth-filling. Delightfully structured, the large proportion of Pinot Noir gives the roundness and gravity that one expects from this cuvée. Despite the wine’s relative youth, it is starting to show some smoky weight and good grip with broad, rich and long acidity. Full bodied and generous, the wine culminates with terrific length.

Due to its structure and power, the 1522 Cuvée Blanc pairs beautifully with luxurious dishes, including foie gras, white truffles, aged Comte cheese, or roasted capon. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThis is a rare, powerful, and deeply complex expression designed to be cellared and enjoyed for decades.[#intro]A rare, single-parcel vintage Champagne showcasing power, purity \u0026amp; spectacular ageing potential...[\/intro]\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Champagne Philipponnat","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57470991958397,"sku":"A18PHILIPPONNAT1522BRUT-1","price":95.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0106\/1539\/0266\/files\/1522BT.jpg?v=1764324606"},{"product_id":"champagne-clos-des-goisses-extra-brut","title":"Champagne Clos des Goisses Extra Brut 2014","description":"\u003cp\u003eClos des Goisses is arguably the most famous single vineyard (or clos) in all of Champagne, representing the very pinnacle of the Philipponnat estate. Located on a steep, south-facing slope overlooking the Marne River near Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, the plot's unique microclimate ensures grapes achieve extraordinary ripeness and concentration, resulting in a Champagne of immense power and longevity. The name 'Goisses' comes from an old regional word for \"very difficult to work,\" a testament to the vineyard's punishing 45-degree gradient. This vintage is an assemblage of Pinot Noir (71%) and Chardonnay (29%) lees aged for eight years in the bottle, also referred to as second fermentation or “prise de mousse”, in the House’s historic cellars in Mareuil-sur-Ay. The very low dosage gives full expression to the vinosity and minerality of this exceptional vineyard. A beautiful golden colour with a lovely, persistent ring of bubbles, the nose is very fresh and expressive, presenting notes of yellow fruit, mirabelle plum and greengage. On being left to breathe, floral notes appear:  vine and acacia blossom. The finish has a slightly roasted character. The palate is fruit-driven and intense, with an enveloping texture, notes of fresh fruit, honey and linden. The finish displays taut minerality and pleasant salinity. A Champagne of profound complexity, power, and minerality, Clos des Goisses is on a par with the best Burgundy reds for pairing with game, truffles, morel mushrooms and washed-rind cheeses.

Unlike many lighter, fruit-driven Rosé Champagnes, the Philipponnat Royale Réserve Rosé Brut is crafted in the house's signature style: concentrated, complex, and firmly structured. Drawn primarily from Grand and Premier Cru vineyards, this Rosé is based on a high percentage of Pinot Noir, blended with Chardonnay, and features a significant proportion of reserve wines matured in wood to achieve its signature depth and richness. Elegant and complex to the nose, it offers a beautiful bouquet of wild strawberry, fresh raspberry, and blood orange, underpinned by classic notes of warm biscuit, toasted almond, and subtle spice from its time in the cellar. Generous and full-bodied on the attack, with a wonderfully creamy texture. The red fruit is precise and focused, balanced by a fine thread of mineral acidity. The use of older reserve wines lends it an impressive depth and a long, structured finish.

Launched to showcase the raw potential of their vineyard holdings, this cuvée is bottled with zero dosage (no added sugar). It is a wine of precision, offering a sensory experience that is both bracing and profoundly rewarding for the adventurous palate. Creating a Non-Dosé Champagne of this calibre is an immense technical challenge; without the \"dosage\" to mask imperfections, the base wine must be flawless. Pol Roger achieves this through a meticulous equal-parts blend of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Meunier. The wine is then tucked away in the deepest, coolest reaches of their 33-metre-deep chalk cellars for at least four years. This extended lees aging is critical, providing the autolytic \"biscuit\" weight and velvety texture needed to balance the wine's vibrant, natural acidity. In the glass, 'Pure' is shimmering and gold with a remarkably fine, persistent mousse. The bouquet is a sophisticated invitation of white flowers, green apple, and wet stone, followed by a delicate hint of fresh bread crust. On the palate, the attack is electric and bone-dry, yet it reveals a surprising breadth of fruit - think grapefruit zest and white peach - all underpinned by a saline, mineral streak. The finish is incredibly clean, leaving a lingering impression of citrus and sea spray. As a wine of such structural integrity, Pol Roger Pure is a superlative aperitif, but it truly excels when paired with the \"briny\" treasures of the sea. Its lack of sugar makes it an unparalleled companion for: Freshly Shucked Oysters with a squeeze of lemon. Sashimi and Crudo where the wine’s acidity cuts through the richness of the fish. Tempura Vegetables or light, salty snacks.

Rather than relying on the unpredictable nature of a single harvest, Laurent-Perrier pioneered the concept of the iteration - a deliberate, expert-led assembly of three exceptional years designed to recreate the perfect vintage. This specific release is a majestic symphony of the 2012 (65%), 2008 (25%), and 2007 (10%) harvests. By taking the rich, sun-drenched generosity of the 2012 fruit and framing it with the taut, crystalline structure of the legendary 2008, the Chef de Cave has crafted a masterpiece of tension and elegance. Sourced exclusively from eight Grand Cru villages, the blend comprises 58% Chardonnay for precise, chalky vitality, and 42% Pinot Noir for depth and architectural structure. Following its meticulous assembly, the wine rests in the cool, chalk cellars for a decade on its lees, developing a profound, textural complexity before release. On the palate, it delivers electric energy. Delicate notes of candied pear, fresh pastry, and honeysuckle intertwine with a faint, sophisticated saline minerality.

Dom Pérignon is arguably the most famous Champagne in the world, only ever made in the absolute best years. The 2017 vintage is a particularly special release. It was a notoriously demanding, extreme year in the vineyards, meaning overall production was incredibly limited. The fact that the winemakers managed to produce a Champagne of this caliber is a testament to their absolute mastery, making these surviving bottles a rare and highly sought-after prize. Pour a glass, and you will see an incredibly fine, persistent stream of bubbles. On the nose, it is wonderfully complex - expect bright, zesty lemon and crisp green apple, followed immediately by comforting, rich aromas of warm toasted brioche and a faint, elegant hint of woodsmoke. In the mouth, it is electric. It feels incredibly precise and sharply defined, balancing that rich, toasty character with a mouth-watering, citrusy freshness that just goes on and on. While it is the ultimate drink to toast a special occasion on its own, it is also a phenomenal food wine. Do not be afraid to pair it with something comforting - it is mind-blowingly good with a generous portion of high-quality fish and chips, a luxurious weekend breakfast of smoked salmon and scrambled eggs, or a beautifully roasted chicken.
