Infinitely food friendly, deeply complex, and powerfully refreshing, Champagne is one of the great wines of the world. The region is as rich in history as it is terroir, with its northernly position achieving the ripeness, low alcohol and high acidity ideal for quality sparkling wine production. The word ‘Champagne’ may lend itself in reputation to celebration, but we’re hard-pressed to find any average day it doesn’t suit just as well.

Join us as we taste through a range of styles and dive deep into the region.
