Brut, Champagne Pierre Courtois (half bottle)

Pierre Courtois is in stock in all formats and unbelievably, still barely half the price of most grandes marques. The best way to find value for money in Champagne (easier said than done) is by knocking on the doors of small, dedicated single growers like Pierre Courtois. As we have. Where here, Courtois’ meticulously tended, mere six hectares of vines produce a consistently elegant champagne punching well above its weight. Wonderfully fresh, with an enviable complexity of flavour and length, theirs is a vibrant, detailed, simply irresistible fizz.
