About

A grower Champagne from Villers-Marmery Premier Cru in the Montagne de Reims, made from 100% Chardonnay grown on chalky-limestone soils. The base blend is topped up with a share of Sadi Malot's own solera reserve, a perpetual blend the family has been feeding since 1982, then bottled without fining. Pale with green reflections and a fine, steady mousse, it opens on wet chalk, oyster shell and fresh bread before moving into orange and clementine fruit jelly, honey and acacia flowers, with a smooth, lemony attack and a rich, long finish.

Producer note

Sadi Malot is a fifth-generation grower Champagne house now run by Cindy Malot and her husband Florian Villiere, farming 9 hectares of Chardonnay in Villers-Marmery and 2 hectares of Pinot Noir in the Grand Cru communes of Verzy and Verzenay. The estate has farmed sustainably for years and has been converting to biodynamics since 2022, vinifying in a mix of stainless steel and concrete eggs.

Prince de Lise Blanc de Blanc Brut

A non-vintage French Blanc de Blancs Brut made entirely from Chardonnay. It is classified by Wine-Searcher as a dry, fresh and youthful sparkling style rather than a complex, traditional one — a straightforward, uncomplicated fizz rather than a vintage Champagne stand-in.

Bouzy Grand Cru, Champagne, France

Paul Bara Brut Reserve Champagne

Champagne Paul Bara

The signature cuvée of Paul Bara, one of Bouzy's rare récoltants-manipulants — growers who make Champagne only from their own grand cru fruit. 80% Pinot Noir with 20% Chardonnay off Bouzy's deep chalky subsoil, fermented in stainless steel with no malolactic conversion and aged on the lees. Light yellow-gold with a fine, abundant mousse: ripe fleshy fruit and Mirabelle plum open into spice, honey, bergamot and orange peel, with yellow peach and a subtle peppery note on a fresh, mineral palate.

Gosset Grande Réserve Brut

Champagne Gosset

Gosset's flagship non-vintage brut: 45% Chardonnay, 45% Pinot Noir and 10% Meunier drawn from premier Champagne villages including Aÿ, Bouzy and Ambonnay. Aged a minimum of four years in the cellar plus at least six months' rest after disgorgement, with a measured 8 g/L dosage. Lemon meringue and honeyed toast on the nose lead to a rich palate of sustained yellow fruit and brioche, structured by the Pinot Noir, before a balanced, persistent floral finish touched with elderflower.

Louis Roederer Collection

Louis Roederer

Collection 246 is the house's 246th blend since its foundation: 54% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir and 11% Meunier, built on 2021 base wines with 30% perpetual reserve going back to 2012 and 10% young-vine juice from Cristal plots aged in cask. The bouquet gives mirabelle plum, nectarine and candied lemon, with vanilla toast from the 24% of wines vinified in French oak foudres and a fine reductive shellfish note. The palate is light and delicate — peach and pollen, soft creamy bubbles, savoury dry-chalk grip — finishing serene with the Perpetual Reserve's smoky, toasty lift.
