Join us for a very casual romp through three distinct sets of champagne styles. We will be pitting Billiecart in a blind throwdown against our top selling single grower champagnes. The past few years have seen something of an explosion in single grower availability in the market and given that the pricing is nearing parity between the two categories its time to settle the score.
Just to make it a little more interesting we will do them in three flights of four. They will be served blind with informal voting to see who emerges the crowd favorites.
