Champagne Bollinger Rose Brut NV
Bollinger, established in 1829 by Jacques Bollinger and Paul Renaudin, is one of the great Champagne houses. The house expanded steadily under the guidance of the legendary Mme Lily Bollinger, and is famous for producing a richer full-bodied style with great depth and power. The Rose NV is amore recent addition to the range, which is full of luscious red berry notes.
Champagne R de Ruinart Brut NV
' The House of Ruinart is unlike any other. It was the first established House of Champagne in 1729 and inspired by the intuition of a monk well ahead of his time, Dom Thierry Ruinart. R de Ruinart is the original expression of the Ruinart taste. This Brut Champagne contains a relatively large share (40%) of Chardonnay. The family chose very early on to honour the fragile, relatively scarce Chardonnay grape; the most elegant of the white grape varieties in Champagne. Chardonnay takes time to develop - it gradually reaches its full aromatic complexity. The blend is made up of 40% Chardonnay, 49% Pinot Noir and 11% Meunier, 20 to 25% of which are wines reserved from the 2 previous years. This results in a harmonious balance between freshness and fullness, with a refined and round mouthfeel. A perfect champagne for aperitifs whatever the occasion. It may also be served with refined, light starters such as poached oysters and seared scallops, or with a main dish such as sole meunière . It is also excellent with local cheeses with a short ripening time, such as Chaource or a very creamy Langres . '
