Larmandier-Bernier Latitude Blanc Champagne Non-Vintage
Pure and mineral, this, like all the recent bottlings, offers superb texture and stone-fruited depth without sacrificing the cut-diamond precision and citrusy, chalky energy that is a given from this area. In short, this is classic Champagne Larmandier - 100% delicious and all class. Latitude is 100% Côte des Blancs Chardonnay from vineyards on the southern side of Vertus. These vineyards are on roughly the same latitude, hence the name, which also hints at the breadth of texture that the wines from these sites tend to offer. Pure and mineral, this offers texture and stone-fruited depth without sacrificing the cut-diamond precision and citrusy, chalky energy that is a given at this address. Extremely versatile at the table, both of the entry cuvées can work with a wide range of dishes from fish, terrines, any chicken dish particularly lemon chicken and most cheeses (except blue or really strong washed rind).
Champagne Henriot Rose
The Champagne Henriot Rose 2015 is a stunning and refined expression of the classic French bubbly. Boasting a light salmon pink hue, this vintage from the esteemed Henriot house is a true visual delight. On the nose, the wine offers delicate yet pronounced aromas of freshly picked strawberries and raspberries, balanced by subtle hints of brioche and toasted almonds. On the palate, the bubbles dance gracefully, revealing a creamy texture and a lively acidity. The flavours of red berries continue to dominate, accompanied by a touch of citrus and a lingering mineral finish. This Champagne is a true testament to the exceptional quality and craftsmanship of Henriot, a producer renowned for their dedication to excellence. Sip and savour this exquisite offering on its own, or pair it with a variety of seafood, charcuterie, and soft cheeses for a truly memorable experience.
