There is a reason why the Brut Amethyst is the No.1 selling wine in our stores each year - our customers know just what incredible quality and value this Champagne offers at a fraction of the price of the larger production commercial houses. we have now teamed up the outstanding Vintage 2014 and new Rubis Rosé to create this Champange Discover Case for our customers. 

Originally founded in 1923 (under Baudry Lebrun & Cie) in Epernay by Princess Baudry after she fled Moscow following the Russian Revolution, in 2002, this artisanal Champagne house was acquired by Jean-Barthélémy Chancel, the son of a winemaking family from the Rhone Valley. At just 25 years of age, he became the youngest champagne negociant of his generation. The house has very distinct and elegant wine style, characterised by a small dosage but a long ageing process on lees of at least 3 years - more than double the minimum requirement of 15 months. The House benefits from rich and diversified grape buying contracts in a large number of Champagne crus, with Jean-Barthélémy overseeing a highly selective, rigorous selection of grapes to make up each cuvée. 

2 Bottles of each Champagne:

• Brut Saphir 2014 is a blend of mostly Chardonnay with a touch of Pinot Noir. Aged on yeast lees for 7 years! A full flavoured wine with a brilliant golden hue, and fine, delicate mousse. Hints of almond, honey, a touch of cinnamon and cocoa on the nose. Complex, fresh and round. Excellent value vintage wine!
• Brut Rubis Rosé NV is a unique colour and elegance, with rich aromas of cherries and blackcurrants, is simply delicious. Salmon pink hue with a delicate nose combining the elegance and freshness of Chardonnay with the red fruit and cherry flavours of Pinot Noir. The mouth is ripe with blackcurrant flavours
• Brut Amethyste NV is a blend is 50% Pinot Noir, 30% Meunier and 20% Chardonnay. It is fresh yet rich on the palate while providing a fine and persistent mousse. The flavours are round with red fruit, a touch of brioche and finishing on a note of citrus peel - all of which make this the perfect aperitif Champagne.
