Lush. Like a ripe pear.

Jancis Robinson MW "Well done!" Parker's Wine Advocate "One of Champagne's finest houses, Pol Roger produces among the most consistent ranges of all the Grandes Marques. The style is full-bodied and elegantly fleshy, dominated by Pinot Noir... the maison privileges its NV Brut Réserve—and indeed, while many non-vintage Bruts fluctuate in quality, Pol Roger's "white foil" bottling is both remarkably reliable and long-lived—which ranks as one of the region's best values."

The top wine from JP and well rated by experts and public alike. Looks AMAZING.

As ever, totally gorgeous Champagne. One whiff and you know this is serious stuff. The aromas of baking brioche, coconut, candied citrus and leather pick up roasted coffee and grilled nuts on the palate. Decanter December 2014 - 19 (96) because it's been blended from 10 differents vintages and 47 differents wines from 25 crus, Krug is a super multi-vintage of its own kind. The extremely tough acidity, together with the heavy rich Krug aromas, are unique. This bottle had a fabulous complex nose on the palate, dominated by nuts and honey. They aftertaste was acidic, long and majestic, like a great symphony.

Muscular, blond, featured in 007 films. Just like Daniel Craig.

Joseph Perrier is a small house in terms of Grand Marque champagnes - only 1 million bottles produced a year, and still use some of the traditional champagne making techniques. Their emphasis is on quality and it shows.

Decanter Review: "Four Stars, 16.5 / 20. Ripe Pinot fruit, a hint of spice, incisive, Chardonnay-led freshness. More precise thanks to a lowered dosage of 8g/l. Exemplary." Michael Edwards July 2011.

Just very slightly off dry. A style much loved in France as aperitif but sadly under-rated in Britain. Or try it with fishy starters.

Ripe red fruits and spice flavour shaped by the dominant Pinot Noir, and plenty of reserve wine. Wonderfully fresh and crisp, Chardonnay the tempering hand.

60% Pinot Noir, 25% Chardonnay and 15% Pinot Meunier. Full bodied and powerful. Toasty, nutty and biscuity with light citrus notes and complex creamy mouthfeel. Excellent with smoked fish dishes.

Jamie Goode: "This is a rising champagne star, with a toasty aroma, herby flavours and a citrus kick.".

A delicious zero dosage wine from Ayala, showcasing quality and finesse. (Sugar can hide a multitude of sins, but you shall find neither in your Brut Nature.) Those who find it too austere should pair it with shellfish (oysters especially) or sushi.

To celebrate 185 years of the house, here is the first vintage Rosé made by Joseph Perrier. It is blended from Grand Cru and Premier Cru vineyards and made up of 20% Chardonnay, 5% Pinot Meunier and 75% Pinot Noir, incorporating 12% Cumieres Rouge.

Star Grand Cru village of the Cotes des Blancs. Green apple fresh with plenty of golden toasty nutty richness.

Jancis Robinson MW 19.5+/20 (surely her highest-ever score for any wine). Probs the most sought-after Champagne on earth. Decater 98/100 "Magnificent". Parker 97+

Family firm since 1670 in Premier Cru village of Champillon just north of Epernay. 100% black grapes. Delicate and fresh, nutty, lively mousse. Perfect House Champagne.

Star Grand Cru village of the Cotes des Blancs. Green apple fresh with plenty of golden toasty nutty richness.

Slight copper hue, spicy, ripe fruit, crème brulée, full-flavoured but delicate & charming. Fine persistent mousse. Totally enjoyable and quite typical of the black-grape dominated Montagne de Reims style.

90 points Robert Parker. An incredibly pretty pale rose colour. This is a delicate, fresh and delicious rosé which is made by adding Cumieres Rouge to the traditional blend, with the refermentation taking place after blending.

Mt de Reims, 70% Pinot, vines border Krug’s Clos d’Ambonnay (£2k a bot). Wine Advocate “broad shoulders and expansive personality… totally delicious”. Janics loves it.

Always rated among the top ten non-vintage champagne, and somehow the most celebratory & irreverently fun wine.

A new wine from Joseph Perrier, this comes from only Pinot Noir grapes harvested from the family's own vineyard in Cumieres. It has zero dosage and shows the ripe expression of this extremely fine vineyard.

Roederer's world-famous luxury cuvee

Expressive notes of white peach, honeysuckle and quince on the nose, followed by some brioche and exotic fruits. On the palate the champagne is full and quite open, beautifully balanced and with real richness, with touches of ginger and apricot jam.

100% Chardonnay from Premier and Grand Cru vineyards: Chouilly, Avize, Cumières Blanc, Le Mesnil sur Oger. Winemaking: Fermented parcel by parcel in stainless vat before ageing in bottle for at least 6 years.

Ruinart’s flagship wine embodies the purity of the Chardonnay grapes from which it is made, primarily with Premiers Crus from Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims.

Intense, fruity and aromatic. . A subtle floral nose marrying rosehip, spice and freshly picked berries. The palate is silky and delicately fleshy.

A delicate, fresh and fruity champagne. Apples, pears and apricots are followed with characteristic hazelnut, brioche and spice notes as the palate develops. Surprisingly weighty. A superb match with all types of shellfish.
