This refined Grand Cru Champagne, sourced from the village of Mailly in the Montagne de Reims, offers a blend of 75% Pinot Noir and 25% Chardonnay. Aged over three years before release, it opens with a zesty lime and floral nose, leading to an elegant palate marked by purity and finesse. Notes of brioche, lemongrass, gingerbread, and honeysuckle enrich the texture, while a firm mineral backbone carries through to a long, resonant finish. Produced by the esteemed cooperative at Champagne Mailly, this “United Kingdom Cuvée” exemplifies Grand Cru pedigree with both vibrancy and structure. A house favorite at No.3 St James’s Street.
