Love is in the air….the champagne’s in the fridge….

And if it isn’t, then it should be! February has a reputation for being a bit lovely, a bit sexy and a good excuse to wheel out the romance – even if it is just once a year! That’s right, Valentine’s Day is fast approaching so credit cards at the ready boys!

Now if you are anti-Valentine’s Day, single or otherwise, fear not, there is something of interest in this post for you also! Any occasion is one to indulge in champagne.

We have put together some fantastic selections of champagnes, macaroons and chocolates to get the senses racing whatever you have planned.

If you are looking for a quiet night in, with a nice, sophisticated bottle to enjoy over dinner, then you should most definitely have a gander at our stunning Dame Noire from the Boulachin Chaput house in Arrentieres, Aube. This 100% Pinot Noir champagne is from the 2006 vintage and is warm, inviting and earthy, with a nose of golden syrup, dried fruits and honey and intense flavours of dark red fruits. It is great before or during a meal – hell, you could even have it after, why not! And it is dressed in a stunning bottle.

If you are looking for a little pre-and post-dinner treat, or just a pick me up, maybe our champagne and truffles gift set is the way to go for you?  A half or full-sized bottle of artisan champagne, paired with 12 sumptuous and rather boozy champagne truffles, all dressed in a beautiful gift box. The truffles are rolled in chocolate flakes to add to the indulgence. And you get to choose from a variety of champagnes.

And now on to something a little more teasing…our brand new popping candy macaroons. A pimped up version of the traditional macaroon to leave a lasting and fun sensation on the tongue. Paired with a beautiful bottle of artisan champagne to add to the fizz! The macaroons are vanilla flavour and are delivered in a lovely little gift box. Ooooh our tongues are tingling at the thought:

Finally, as if they weren’t exciting enough, you might also like to try one of our special champagnes from our “Lovers” Collection from the Jean-Jacques LAMOUREUX vineyard (that’s French for lovers by the way). You can see them and the rest of our range here.

Whatever your plans are for the 14th February, make sure you invest in some decent champagne and have a great time! We will be dining at Chez Max in Epernay, a fabulous little bistro. Can’t wait!!

Lots of love,
