Champagne Brut NV HALF BOTTLE

There are some occasions when only Champagne will do. Maybe that’s a Tuesday lunchtime, but let’s keep that between ourselves. What we’ve picked here is a Champagne that suits those very special occasions down to the ground. It’s crisp and well balanced. It has the citrus and brioche-y hints that Champagne lovers know and adore. It’s fresh, clean and lively. Extravagant? Well, yes. Worth every penny? Definitely.

Grapes

Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier

Country & Region

France, Champagne 
In the north of France, not far from Paris. All Champagne has to come from the Champagne region. If it comes from somewhere else, it just isn’t Champagne. Full stop.

Vintage

Non Vintage – blending wine from different years to maintain the ‘house’ style and consistent quality.

Producer Info

Pierre Mignon isn’t one of the big Champagne Houses. It’s more of a Boutique than a Hypermarket, and that’s why we love it so much. The family who own and run the House really care, and it shows. It’s not about selling hundreds of thousands of bottles, it’s about making sure each wine is something the family can be proud of.

Wine Story

Premier Cru Champagne is made from grapes grown in the superior vineyards. Better vineyards means better grapes, and better grapes mean better Champagne. The resulting elegance and finesse is unmistakable.

Food Match Ideas

We realise most of you won’t have this with food – you’ll want to spray it over you friends, smash it against the side of boats or perhaps drink it on its own. If you do want to have some food with it though, we’d recommend canapés, or if you’re really pushing the boat out, lobster would be amazing.
