Ferrari Perle
The best Chardonnay from the family’s vineyards is used to make this vintage Trentodoc; it is the wine that best summarizes the art of Ferrari. The phrasing of its taste is highly elegant, with a crescendoing finish. Pale golden highlights adorn its straw yellow colour. The perlage is extremely fine and persistent. Aromatic richness of extraordinary expressiveness: the scene is dominated by hints of Reinette apples and citrus fruits, accompanied by tones of white peach, almond blossom and toast-like notes. Elegant and harmonious, with the unmistakable fruity, aromatic sensations that are typical of Chardonnay. These are followed by a slightly almondy finish of great persistence, the result of long ageing on the yeasts.
Bollinger B16 Champagne
Product Description: Bollinger B16 is a vintage Champagne shaped by the contrasts of the 2016 season, a year that tested the limits of the region and highlighted the resilience of the Maison. Drawn largely from late-ripening Grand and Premier Cru sites in the Montagne de Reims, the wine reflects a blend of approximately 73 percent Pinot Noir and 27 percent Chardonnay, showing a refined tension between depth and clarity. Fermentation in oak barrels and more than seven years on lees give the wine its poised texture and subtle complexity. The 2016 growing season moved from cold, wet conditions and spring frosts to an intense late summer, concentrating flavours while reducing yields. Bollinger’s decision to focus on structured Pinot Noir from its strongest terroirs brings definition and drive, supported by Chardonnay that adds lift and detail. Manual riddling and disgorgement preserve the precision of the blend, while the extra brut dosage of 4 g/L maintains transparency and restraint. B16 steps away from Bollinger’s more muscular cuvées and leans into purity and finesse. The black and white bottle echoes the vintage’s interplay of delicacy and depth, presenting a Champagne that feels composed, textural and finely etched. It is well suited to dishes that highlight clean lines and gentle richness such as oysters, scallops or lightly poached seafood. Tasting Notes NOSE – Floral and lifted Hawthorn and acacia with white stone fruit, bergamot and subtle almond. PALATE – Silky and precise Pear and yellow plum with citrus zest, candied lemon and a mineral edge supported by gentle saline tension. FINISH – Long and mineral Persistent and elegant with refined salinity and a lingering chalky line. Reviews & Accolades “A sophisticated champagne with extremely refined character and linear phenolics that give it length and class. It's medium-bodied with grapefruit and apples as well as pie crust. Bright acidity at the end.” - James Suckling, 96 points “Supple and already blooming, with a spicy and lush nose from oak and a salty tang.” - Essi Avellan MW, 94–96 points “Lively and more floral than many a Bollinger champagne, almost transparent and filigree with marked but not excessive acidity.” - Jancis Robinson MW, 17.5/20 Finer Details: Style - Champagne Varietal - Pinot Noir Chardonnay Country - France Region - Champagne Vintage - 2016 Bottle Size - 750ml ABV - 12%

Champagne Hebrart Special Club Millesime Premier Cru
2019 is the new release of the Special Club from Marc Hebrat, and it looks to be another magnificent vintage for this much-loved producer. Marc Hebrart has been a member of the Club Trésors de Champagne or Special Club since 1985 and has continued their presence among the select producers in the club after Marc's son Jean-Paul assumed control. The blend here is 55% pinot and 45% Chardonnay from the villages of Mareuil-sur-Aÿ 1er Cru (65%), Aÿ Grand Cru (25%), Oiry Grand Cru (5%), and Couilly Grand Cru (5%). Richard Juhlin states that Mareuil-Sur-Aÿ should be a Grand Cru village, and when compared to the Champagnes of Ay, they are almost indistinguishable.
