From the house where the brut Champagne was invented, the NV bottling is equal parts Chard/PN/PM from 40 crus, with about 30% reserve wine, and spends 36 months on lees.
Pear, green apple, lime, peach, and light crusty bread, the nose showcases more Chardonnay characters. Bright, youthful, yet delicate in the palate.
Lacking a bit complexity and intensity, but I like the roundness and balance here. — 2 years ago
Great Value very Dry, Brut as they say.
When I was a kid Brut was what I put on face. Probably don’t want to do this, just drink it — a month ago
We popped this British beauty to help celebrate a friends birthday from afar and boy was it a delight to drink.
We were kindly sent this sample bottle from Pommery to help celebrate their first British sparkling wine! They’re the first Champagne house to produce an English fizz and wow, I was impressed!
In fact I’d drink it over a few of the big brand NV Champagnes. That’s how well it went down! At approximately $89 a pop I definitely would expect that.
The grapes 🍇 are grown in Hampshire, Southern England and it’s made from the classic champagne grapes with the majority being Chardonnay. It’s Pommery in style from English terroir.
In the glass it’s a brilliant morning sunshine hue. The nose is super fresh with yellow orchard fruits and citrus however it also made me think of vanilla honey on crumpets. The palate is smooth and perfectly rounded. My oh my it’s divine.

Wow what a fantastic champagne! Light, crisp, tiny bubbles, and a nice tart apple finish. Pass me another glass! — 2 months ago
Soft salmon color. Light aromas of red berries along with orange and lemon. Red berry and currant flavors with just a touch of minerality. High activity scrubbing bubbles act as a great pallet cleanser. (But not too aggressive). Elegant, round and nicely balanced. Well crafted. Thank You, Kase! — 3 years ago

Not really a time for celebration given the recent events, but life is too short no to live in the moment.
I thought this cuvée has higher % of PN, but it does not seem to be the case for 2005 (can’t fine the exact blend for the vintage) as it shows prominent apple and citrus notes. Peach, pomelo, brioche, and white flowers as well. Very intense yet quite refined on the palate with chalky minerals. The finish is precise and long. — 6 days ago
