French Mixed Case

Mixed Case

A wonderful taster of regional French wines at a specially discounted price. This case includes one of each of the following:

£75.00

NV Blanc de Blancs ‘La Signa-Terres’, Champagne Paul Lebrun

Chardonnay

The La Signa-Terres from Paul Lebrun shows an incredible butter-like creaminess alongside orchard fruits, citrus and almond aromas. Toasty, but with a soft palate thanks to the mild dosage and a creamy petillance which doesn't overpower the delicate texture and freshness. The finish is lengthy with hints of toast, zest and salted almonds.

£44.00

NV Blanc de Blancs, Langham Wine Estate, Dorset

Chardonnay

Following many ultra-successful vintage releases, the Langham Blanc de Blancs has switched to a non vintage blend following the 2018 vintage.  Made with 100% Chardonnay, 56% of which is from the 2021 vintage, and aged on the lees for three years, this is an energetic and wonderfully focussed Blanc de Blancs. The nose displays a tense balance between ripe green apple and conference pear with notes of white flowers and intense graphite minerality. The palate is delicate yet weighty in texture, with soft ripe pear, honeydew melon and white grapefruit acidity, finishing with a trademark saline nuttiness.

£47.95

NV Cremant Du Jura ‘Cuvee Bethanie’, Fruitiere Vinicole Arbois

Chardonnay

One of our best selling sparkling wines, this stunning Cremant is given added complexity by the addition of 2cl of Vin Jaune at dosage.  The result adds a rich, nutty and savoury edge to what is otherwise traditional method 100% Chardonnay, which tasted blind could pass for an aged Champagne.  Not everyone's cup of tea but certainly popular and curious enough to keep customers coming back for more!

NV Rose Extra Brut, Langham Estate, Dorset

Champagne Blend

This complex Rosé NV is a blend of 15% Pinot Noir, 16% Pinot Meunier, 69% Chardonnay, with the current release made from base wine from 2020.  The wine offers aromas aplenty of cherry bakewell, pink lady apple skin, raspberry yoghurt & wild strawberries. The palate reflects this fresh red berry profile, but it is also more serious & has great depth. Cherry yoghurt, young wild strawberry & raspberry coulée bring the fruit profile to the forefront, whilst a more savoury & saline note rounds off the wine.

£37.95

NV Voulez Vous Couche Avec Moi? Vincent Couche

Chardonnay

Vincent Couche is a biodynamic grape grower in Champagne who also owns some vines in Burgundy, where he makes this de-classified Cremant de Bourgogne.  Taking a 'Grower Champagne' approach to cremant, 30% of the grapes are oak fermented and aged in a solera so do not conform to the regulations of appellation.  Who cares when the wine is this good!  Vibrant and amazingly drinkable, this crisp, complex and downright gluggable fizz is true real delight, showing zesty mineral tinged citrus, baked apple and whiffs of brioche.  No added sulphur makes it all the more appealing.
