Why Champagne Michel Guilleminot?
Champagne drinking certainly isn't getting any cheaper. Which these days typically means paying an average of £40+ for a bottle of off-the-shelf, big-brand (i.e. big marketing budget) champers made from fruit sourced from who-knows-where across the endless sprawl Champagne's vineyards.
Because for well under £30 you savour artisanal 'grower Champagne' made of fruit sourced from this small estates own vineyards instead of fruit from those of a high-volume grower completely removed from Guilleminot's site-specific terroir.
Terroir yielding 100% estate-grown pinot noir for a blanc de noirs that undergoes three years of lees ageing (far beyond Champagnes minimum requirement) and is then disgorged in-house.
Terroir that is expressed in delicate floral, citrus, and brioche aromas and on a palate bursting with juicy red-berry and zesty citrus flavours, all complemented by a creamy mousse.
As such, Guilleminot embodies the essence of la méthode champenoise, providing the Champagne enthusiast with the tradition's purest expression.



This blanc de noirs is well made and delicious. A half bottle from the fridge is an excellent sharpener. Maybe a 50cl or Churchillian pint would be a good idea? It’s the right size for 2 people.
I ordered this by mistake thinking they were full (70cl) bottles - hey ho but nice stuff and much superior to Prosecco.
my favourite champagne, perfect size for a cheeky glass!
