NV Philippe Gonet Roy Soleil Grand Cru Brut
Founded in 1830, Champagne Philippe Gonet is located in the heart of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger. The Gonet vineyards are adjacent to the world-famous vineyards of Salon and are located only a stone's throw from the illustrious Clos du Mesnil of Krug. Roi Soleil is a tribute to Louis XIV, 'The Sun King' to whom champagne owes its worldwide influence. The cuvée was created in 2003, imagined by the young team who were beginning to master their talents. Pierre and Chantal Gonet, brother and sister, took the reins of the seventh generation of winemaking at the ages of just 22 and 23. While they could have easily sunk, they not only were able to survive, but soared. Today, Pierre oversees winemaking and the vineyards while Chantal is the face of Gonet internationally. Made solely from Chardonnays from the Grand Cru plots of Mesnil, this cuvée is aged for 6 months in oak barrels (demi-muids) and rests in bottle for a minimum of 3 years. This is a stunning Champagne which given its superb quality and scarcity, offers mind-blowing value for money. Don't Miss It!

2008 Henriot Cuvee Hemera
Two hundred years after Apolline Henriot founded Maison Henriot, the Champagne region experienced a classic year. 2008 was a perfect reflection of the region with cool and uncertain weather in winter, spring and summer followed by a return of the sun as the harvest approached, just as if the Goddess Hemera herself used all her powers to produce one of the greatest ever vintages. Henriot’s 200th anniversary harvest realized Apolline’s vision as Cuvee Hemera 2008, showcasing both the perfect conditions of the vintage and the six founding grands crus of the House. Last Wednesday afternoon we hosted the Champagne Henriot team at Graileys, who held a Henriot masterclass for the trade. We tasted the 2008 Hemera, and with almost 14 years on its lees it revealed itself to be a stunning vintage Champagne of incredible depth and sophistication. Considering the spectrum of the world's finest Champagnes tasted regularly in the club, to find one that really stands out, it has to be something truly special...and this one is. At the BEST PRICE IN THE COUNTRY this is the Champagne deal of the year.
