If you haven’t tried Vilmart & Cie Champagne yet, now is the time to acquaint yourself with one of the best boutique Champagnes offered today. Those of us in the wine business have semi-jokingly referred to this great Cuvee as a baby Krug. Coming from the northern region of Champagne called Montagne de Reims, this Premier Cru Brut Cuvee of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir offers tiny bubbles and deep notes of citrus fruit and toast with a long, satisfying finish on the palate. It is a beautifully delicious Champagne that drinks far more expensive than its respective price. While we love the bigger Champagne houses like Krug, Ruinart and Dom Perignon, it's the Grower Producer Champagnes like Vilmart that have captured our palate and heart.
