With the generous assistance of a very talented and passionate former colleague of mine we have been very lucky to access a limited amount of some extraordinary champagne just in time for the summer! We have three grand cru classified wines available, one of which is a ‘Blanc de Noirs’ vintage wine that has spent a stunning 9 years on lees, developing bountiful brioche-like champagne character.
With the imminent release of three champagne wines from the extraordinary Bernard Brémont in Ambonnay, it is worth knowing a little about Champagne wine itself. Following is a brief-as-I-can-make-it explainer...
Sunday brought a lazy game of tennis with the courtside assistance of Grand Cru Champagne, olives, and a few oysters. It was ‘doubles day’ - nothing too serious. Vince and Ella versus Nate and his sister Wendy, a late arrival to the island. Wendy ‘Whacker’ Wesley had been on the Grand Slam tour and only arrived that morning by sea plane.
Vince woke with unexpected optimism about his well being. It was, however, short-lived. He attempted to walk around the bed, and discovered that he was, in-fact, still drunk. ‘This is good,’ he thought to himself. ‘The best golf I have ever played was like this…’.
Take a look at our beautiful new tailoring collection. It is all available to order. Don’t hesitate to get in touch with your tailor if you would like more information. If you do not have a tailor, one can be organised…
If you’re particularly stricken with boredom, follow Ella, Vince and Nate featured in our collection shoot, and fictionalised below in Part 1 of “Weekend at the Wesleys”
