There has been a phenomenal rise in the number of artisan Champagne makers in recent decades as more and more growers have risen to the challenge of crafting their own wines. As Anthony Rose wrote, “Champagnes made by local growers are not just affordable, but in many instances superior to the better known big brands” (The Independent). Didier and Karine Chopin are based in the Marne Valley. They bottled their first Champagne in 1989, made from grapes grown on Karine’s family’s estate. Today they have an estate of their own. This vintage Champagne is made entirely from Chardonnay from 2008, a classic Champagne year. Seven years on, it shows considerable richness and complexity. An ideal partner to lighter hors d’oeuvres and shellfish.
