“If you like the basic champagne (usually the Brut sans année) of a champagnehouse, you’ll be charmed by the rest of the brands” is a saying you hear time and time again when visiting the Champagne region. We’ve experienced it to be true.
Which doesn’t mean we do not have a favourite cuvée from the champagne farmers on our site.
Whether you are an amateur or a connaisseur, we are convinced that our selection of Blancs de Blancs, Rosés, Millésimes, … will tantalise your taste buds.
Marc and Vieux Marc de Champagne is an Eau de Vie made by distilling the pressed grapes into an alcohol of 40%.
It’s usually drunk as a “nightcap” after the meal or used in the kitchen to flambé or to make a ‘trou champenois’ (sorbet soaked in Marc). You can also find it as a praline filling or in chocolate truffles.
Fine de Champagne experiences an extra distillation which intensifies and refines its flavours and aromas.
