Camille Roederer, who, widowed, took control in 1932 exemplifies the significance of women in Champagne production, guiding the troubled business through the years of economic depression, expanding Roederer's ownership of Grand Cru vineyards, and thereby ensuring the continued and future success of the house.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Louis Roederer Brut Premier NV is 40% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Meunier, mainly from their own Premier and Grand Cru vineyards, and with a dosage of 11-12g\/l. It is fermented in stainless steel vats, increasingly flavoured by Champagne houses to offset the incremental effect of climate change. The production also involves an element of oak ageing to avoid malolactic activity and therefore preserve the acidity and create complexity of flavours. Cristal is the more luxurious of Roederer Champagnes. Originally sweet it was made for Tsar Alexander of Russia in 1876. Omnly the very best Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes are used in the elaboration of this Champagne, which is presented in the distinctive clear bottle to show off its golden colour and so allowing speculative anticipation of the character qualities of this elegant, rich wine, before opening and tasting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MMD","offers":[{"title":"1 Bottle 75cl","offer_id":20026938851387,"sku":"","price":69.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0131\/6713\/2731\/products\/louisroederer473x473.jpg?v=1605538049"},{"product_id":"louis-roederer-cristal-2012-champagne","title":"Louis Roederer Cristal 2012 Champagne","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV 12%\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCristal is Louis Roederer's flagship cuvée.Hand harvested and vinified by plot, 20% of the blend was vinified in large oak casks and 20-% underwent malolactic fermentation.

From the results of these trials would appear what we could say was the precursor of the so-called “new era” of Rioja wines. This wine is produced on a very limited scale and only in the best vintage years, in which the character of the vineyard, the soil and the variety are expressed as part of a single, harmonious whole. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of 26ºC and the maceration period does not exceed 12 days. The malolactic fermentation takes place in small wooden vats with a capacity of 20,000 litres and the wine is then aged for 20 months in Bordeauxstyle barrels made of French oak. Finally, the wine spends a minimum time of a year rounding off in the bottle before being released for sale.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA dark cherry colour, lively with few signs of evolution.

The first traces of the chateau’s site date back to Gaullist times during which its location served as a lookout point to spot intruders coming by boat into the Gulf of Frejus. The chateau’s cellar structure or foundation (known today as the oldest in the region) housed an original Chateau that was given by the Comte de Provence to Gérard De Villeneuve, in 1201. The current chateau, inspired by Tuscan Villa design, was built during the mid 19th century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChâteau d’Esclans lies in the center of the Department of the Var, where the majority of Provence AOC rosé is produced. The land was occupied as long as 2500 years ago when it was probably used as a lookout point for intruders sailing into the Gulf of Frejus. The original château—of which now only the cellar remains—dates back to before the 12th century. In 1201, Gérard De Villeneuve, part of a wealthy family from Marseille, took ownership of the château and the majority of the surface area of the Vallée d’Esclans that would eventually be sold off in lots. Two brothers, Sauver Louis Ranque and Francois Alexandre Ranque, were the next to own the château, known then as Terre d’Esclans.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 1875, they sold the property to Joseph Toussaint Caussemille, who manufactured wooden matches near Marseilles. In 1955, the Perraud family owned the property until 1994. At that time, it was purchased by a Swedish pension fund that produced a small amount of wine and the remaining grapes were sold to neighboring winemakers. Sacha Lichine aquired Château d’Esclans in 2006. Today there are 108 acres (44 ha) of vineyards. The total proprety has 659 acres (267 ha).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe primary grape grown on the property is Grenache followed by Vermentino. Other grapes include Cinsault, Merlot, Mourvèdre, Syrah, and Tibouren. The château is known for its old Grenache vines which produce grapes that offer greater concentration of flavor than do the younger vines. As the elevation to where the lots are situated increases, so do the age of the vines. At the highest elevated lot vines are as old as 90 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ellis of Richmond","offers":[{"title":"1 Methuselah 6L","offer_id":31610527481891,"sku":"","price":399.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0131\/6713\/2731\/products\/whispering_angel_wooden_case_6_litre_f415cfde-11c0-4262-9423-94824d8912bf.jpg?v=1579164359"},{"product_id":"laurent-perrier-cuvee-rose-brut-nv-champagne-gift-case","title":"Laurent-Perrier Cuvée Rosé Brut NV Champagne - Gift Case","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product-info__symbol\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e£69.95 \u003c\/span\u003eper bottle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info__symbol-label\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV 12%\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info__symbol-label\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info__symbol-label\"\u003eFounded in 1812, the Laurent-Perrier Champagne house was inherited and revived by Bernard de Nonancourt who had fought with French resistance in World War 2 as a leader of a maquis cell.

He married into the Villermont family so forming ownership links with their vineyards in Cuis. Jospeh Bollinger expanded the business and presided over the development of a new dryer style of chamoagne destined for the English and Amercian markets (1865-70). In World War 2 Lily Bollinger took control of the firm, subsequently acquiring in the post war years prime vineyards extending almost to the current level of holdings 178 hectares. Bollinger is therefore able to supply two thirds of its requirements for its champagne production. Most of the grapes for this Champagne (La Grande Année Brut 2007) came from Ghrand Cru vineyards, the smaller proportion from Premier Crus, only the best of the first pressings are used. The wine is fermented in small oak barrels to give greater complexity of flavour and to create optimum potential ageing, in this case a minimum of 5 years after it has been bottled. Every care is taken to acheive the highest quality, the reserve wines being kept in magnums to prevent oxidation. Since his arrival cellar master Mathieu Kauffmann has taken Bollinger champagne to even higher levels of excellence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Champagne White Vintage\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry:\u003c\/strong\u003e France\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Champagne\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bollinger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary grape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pinot Noir\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSecondary grape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chardonnay\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScrewcap:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cork\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBottle size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 75cl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbv:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12%","brand":"Matthew Clark","offers":[{"title":"1 Bottle 75cl","offer_id":31732754022435,"sku":"","price":175.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"6 Bottle Case 6x75cl","offer_id":31732753956899,"sku":"","price":1050.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0131\/6713\/2731\/products\/bollingergrandeannee.png?v=1606322220"},{"product_id":"pauillac-de-latour-2010-chateau-latour-pauillac","title":"Pauillac de Latour 2010, Château Latour, Pauillac","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e£195.00 \u003c\/span\u003eper bottle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\" mce-data-marked=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINE \u0026amp; RARE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV 13.0%\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis wine has been made every year since 1989, and was developed primarily for the restaurant market.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTerroir\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Pauillac is made primarily from young vines, growing on the less prestigious terroirs in the vineyard, and from wines that do not meet the selection criteria for Forts de Latour (specific to each vintage).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbout 20% new barrels are used in the vinification of the Pauillac, the precise proportion varying depending on the characteristics of the vintage.

The first traces of the chateau’s site date back to Gaullist times during which its location served as a lookout point to spot intruders coming by boat into the Gulf of Frejus. The chateau’s cellar structure or foundation (known today as the oldest in the region) housed an original Chateau that was given by the Comte de Provence to Gérard De Villeneuve, in 1201. The current chateau, inspired by Tuscan Villa design, was built during the mid 19th century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChâteau d’Esclans lies in the center of the Department of the Var, where the majority of Provence AOC rosé is produced. The land was occupied as long as 2500 years ago when it was probably used as a lookout point for intruders sailing into the Gulf of Frejus. The original château—of which now only the cellar remains—dates back to before the 12th century. In 1201, Gérard De Villeneuve, part of a wealthy family from Marseille, took ownership of the château and the majority of the surface area of the Vallée d’Esclans that would eventually be sold off in lots. Two brothers, Sauver Louis Ranque and Francois Alexandre Ranque, were the next to own the château, known then as Terre d’Esclans.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 1875, they sold the property to Joseph Toussaint Caussemille, who manufactured wooden matches near Marseilles. In 1955, the Perraud family owned the property until 1994. At that time, it was purchased by a Swedish pension fund that produced a small amount of wine and the remaining grapes were sold to neighboring winemakers. Sacha Lichine aquired Château d’Esclans in 2006. Today there are 108 acres (44 ha) of vineyards. The total proprety has 659 acres (267 ha).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe primary grape grown on the property is Grenache followed by Vermentino. Other grapes include Cinsault, Merlot, Mourvèdre, Syrah, and Tibouren.

There are two different experiences possible. The first entails a discovery of Bollinger R.D. during the same year of its disgorgement. In this case, the wine expresses a specific aromatic range, with complex fruity notes. The alternative experience involves leaving Bollinger R.D. for several more years to mature in the cellar, which then reveals the depth of aromas characteristic of the finest vintages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHistory\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the mid-1960s, while most Champagne Houses were developing unusually shaped bottles, Bollinger decided to concentrate on its signature taste. Although old vintages were not fashionable in 1967, Madame Bollinger was bold as ever. True to her pioneering spirit, she had the daring idea of marketing the 1952 vintage that had recently been disgorged and dosed as an Extra Brut. This was the vision she championed: the absolute prestige of Bollinger lay in the wine itself, not in its vessel. In doing so, Madame Bollinger created a completely original tasting experience: the aromatic intensity of the finest vintages, contrasted with a wonderful freshness on the palate. This freshness is due to the natural acidity of the grapes during harvest, and is underscored by the Extra Brut dosage. It was a revolution that would have a lasting impact on the Bollinger style, as well as the world of champagne as a whole. This vintage bore the name of the cuvée for the very first time. It would be known as Bollinger R.D. and its label was the first ever to specify a disgorgement date. Bollinger R.D. 2007 now once again sports all the codes of this legendary label: material, font and date of disgorging. Authenticity through the years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTasting note\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e‘2007 is in most hands a weak and diluted vintage that I normally avoid. The exception is spelled Bollinger! The powerful house style often shines brighter during lighter vintages, the vintage wines from Bollinger are top on my list from 2007. The wine was already like La Grande Année classically built and balanced with good depth and tightly beautiful malic acids. Now in the R.D. version, the minerality is even clearer with macadam, chalk and gunpowder smoke. The champagne is extremely slim with a slightly buttery vanilla-like note as the top layer on above the dry notes of cocoa, hazelnut cream, dried apricots, blood orange and red juicy apples. An unusually fine-tuned classic.’\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRichard Juhlin 94 (95)\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bollinger","offers":[{"title":"1 Bottle 75cl","offer_id":39260284944419,"sku":"","price":350.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0131\/6713\/2731\/products\/bollingerrd2007finewinedirect.png?v=1615544664"},{"product_id":"billecart-salmon-demi-sec-champagne-75cl-gift-box","title":"Billecart-Salmon Demi-sec Champagne 75cl + Gift Box","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWas \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: line-through;\"\u003e£70.00\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNow \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e£59.95\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e per bottle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e30% Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims and the Grande Vallée de la Marne\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e30% Chardonnay sourced from the best Crus in the Champagne region\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e40% Pinot Meunier from the Vallée de la Marne and the southern slopes of Epernay Vinification in stainless steel tanks\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e It has a beautiful, pale gold colour, emitting a constant procession of fine, regular and persistent bubbles in the glass\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e This Demi-Sec champagne is full-flavoured and is a reference for its perfect balance between sugar, alcohol and acidity\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAroma:\u003c\/strong\u003e On the nose it is lively with a hint of delicate white flowers which evolve towards aromas of buttered brioche.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ideal when served with patisseries or chocolate cake; it also turns a brioche afternoon snack into a unique experience.

The original château—of which now only the cellar remains—dates back to before the 12th century. In 1201, Gérard De Villeneuve, part of a wealthy family from Marseille, took ownership of the château and the majority of the surface area of the Vallée d’Esclans that would eventually be sold off in lots.
