The tiny mousse tells a lot about the quality of this impressive Champagne. It is quite full in style, with flavors of white currants and a rich, but still bone-dry aftertaste. It is a perfect food Champagne, with structure and a good tension between richness and elegance. Imported by Robert Chadderdon Selections.

From five grand cru vineyards in the Côte des Blancs, this 100% Chardonnay is a great wine, with some toast and almond flavors showing good bottle age, along with freshness, finesse, ripe white fruits and a structured, lingering aftertaste. Imported by Robert Chadderdon Selections.

A very dry style of Champagne that needs food. At this stage, this wine is young, with vibrant acidity and dense, green fruit. But it has a long future ahead of it, and shortly should show some toast and maturity. Serve this with fish, and appreciate its qualities even more. Imported by Robert Chadderdon Selections.

A bone-dry but delicious wine, with red fruits and a beautiful onion-skin color that just hints at rosé. Lovely acidity completes the serious and highly enjoyable wine. Imported by Robert Chadderdon Selections.

From a relatively open vintage, this is a wine that is generous, rounded, full of green fruits, and balanced with a ripe texture. It has weight, but has more to do with sheer pleasure. It could age, maybe over 5 years, but its nutty hints show it is ready to drink.

Crisply dry, and very fresh, this is dominated by green, tangy fruits, pink grapefruit and a core of minerality. It has a lightness, but it does need to age, for its acidity is still massive.

The Billecart Blend Rose bubbles is always a winner. Hints of strawberry, vanilla, and citrus. Has a great nose and a light feel on the palette
