Prepare to be wowed!

Champagne Marion-Bosser Premier Millesime 2008 is due to arrive in the next week.  This is a truly a spectacular champagne!  Don’t just take my word for it, see what Ian Ganble, Master Sommelier has to say.

Having visited the tightly knit Marion-Bosser family during my recent travels, I can confidently say I’m both a subscriber to their classic ‘Burgundian’ philosophies and an avid supporter of their delicious micro-production wines. Marion-Bosser’s 2008 is a resounding achievement that can rival almost any Champagne you want to throw at it—they have the terroir, traditional style, and forbearance needed to craft a world-class vintage Champagne (something they manage to release at a ridiculously affordable price).  Read on…https://www.sommselect.com/?product=marion-bosser-premier-cru-millesime-2008


John Saker’s top 10 bubblies for 2017

We were recently invited to submit some champagnes for blind tastings and judging by John Saker and two top Wellington Sommeliers, Maciej Zimny (Noble Rot) and Kate Hutchison (Capitol). They blind-tasted 37 champagnes in all, 11 of which were rosés. There were five vintage wines entered; the rest were non-vintage. Prices ranged from $140 per bottle to $39.95.

We are extremely thrilled to say that our Marion Bosser Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut NV Premier Cru came in the top 10.  We know this is a fabulous champagne and we love it but this is what these three guru’s had to say:

“For something a little off-piste, try the Marion Bosser Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut NV Premier Cru NV (#9). This is an elegant, charming 100 per cent chardonnay style which offers excellent value (go to threefrenchvines.com).”
