Premium Champagne & Sparkling Wine

To find a good sparkling wine under £10 is a considerable challenge. After dozens of samples we struck gold with this dry Colombard, Chenin Blanc by Jules Larose.

70% of the French champagne market is for small single grower champagnes such as this, rather than big brand, 'les grandes marques'. Delicious champagne.

"It's amazing value, and as good a French non-champagne as you'll find, with honeyed yet dry fruit, the softest of mousses and finest of finishes. Outstanding."

In our mind, without doubt the finest English sparkling wine.

Michel Guilleminot Blanc de Noirs comes from the very south of Champagne in the beautiful Vallee de l'Aube. A lovely single grower champagne made by the 4th generation Guilleminot family.

Delicately aromatic with citrus, blossom and white peach notes alongside honeysuckle. The palate is fresh with apple and peach fruit, notes of hazelnut and a long, persistent finish.

Rosé champagne has a cachet and excitement about it, perhaps because it is rarer. The Guilleminot Rosé champagne made with their own Champenois pinot noir is a real treat.

 "It's elegant, fresh and fragrant, with a hint of grapefruit and exotic spices. Exquisitely delicious and remarkable value for an English sparkling rosé."

Taken from the estates best plots and aged on its lees for five years. This prestige Blanc de Noirs will challenge many of the Grandes Marques on everything but price. ...

"Bruised red apples, raspberries, wild strawberries, rose petals and white toast. Palate offers a great mousse, nice acidity and mature fruit. Refined, with subtle lees-ageing richness and a mix of ...

"...look no further than the Champagne Arlaux 1er Cru Grande Cuvée Brut NV. It really is astoundingly fine, all baked apple, honey and toast with the finest of mousses..."

Jancis Robinson, author and FT wine critic, has written "Nyetimber really is the Krug of England. Or should we say Krug is the Nyetimber of Champagne?"

Elegant, delicate and fresh, it works particularly well with richer foods.

A mouth-watering 100% Pinot Noir rosé aged for three years on its lees before being released to enhance its flavour. Dry, crisp and scrumptious.

A fine blend of chardonnay, pinot noir and pinot meunier with delicate fizz and a light creamy finish. Why pay a lot more for Moët & friends?!

Great classic champagne house at the top of its form, still family owned. Bollinger Special Cuvee is 60% pinot noir, 25% chardonnay, 15% meunier.

Bollinger Rosé consists of bronze tones with the intense depth of a great red wine. It has a subtle combination of structure, length and vivacity, with a tannic finish.

"Vivid, almost luscious strawberry aromas. Flecks of nutmeg and clove spice amid the lively, refreshing fruit on its slender, fresh body. A real joyful classic."
