Champagne En Primeur
People are drawn to the wines of Champagne partly from their association with celebration, success and luxury and partly because these wines, at their best, are some of the most complex to be found. At Tanners we try to offer you a range of the well-known brands, such as Bollinger.
Vintage champagnes are only produced in the best years. They have undergone a longer maturation than their non-vintage counterparts and consequently have more depth and complexity along with more bready flavours and aromas.
For champagne to be specified as ‘vintage’, 100% of the grapes must have been grown in the year on the label. Vintage champagnes spend a minimum of three years on their lees whilst some of the top champagne houses keep their wines on the lees in excess of five, or even ten years, in some cases.

Sparkling
Attractive dried stone fruits on the nose, yellow plum and golden honey, citrus peels, soft red fruits, tropical touches and a host of nut, toast, and cream. This has a clean salt-kissed chalky note which adds to a sense of definition and lift, and the palate shows great concentration, a firm core overlaid with layers of texture… this is less an aperitif and more a Grande Année for the main course.
