Palmer & Co may not be a Champagne house you’ve heard of – but they certainly deserve to be. Since 1947, they have bene making elegant and noteworthy wines in the heart of Champagne, and today encompass over 200 growers, spread over 40 villages. The key to their winemaking prowess? Time. Every bottle of Palmer is aged for much longer than Champagne laws require (and also much longer than any of their competitors’ offerings). They are also lovers of the large format, their deep and chalky cellars filled with anything from 1996 magnums of Blanc de Blancs to 30 year old Methuselahs and Nebuchadnezzars. In fact, they lovingly call regular 75cl bottles ‘half magnums’. . . . . . . @champagnepalmer #champagnepalmer #champagne #palmer #naturallyelegant #timeasalegacy #champagnehouse #champagnelover #fizz #sparklingwine #winesoffrance #frenchwine #blancdeblancs #vintage #vintagechampagne #magnum #methuselah #nebuchadnezzar #wine #winelover #winegeek #winestagram #instawine #reims #somm #sommlife #sommelier #sommelierlife #drinkstagram

Bruno Paillard was sprung from its founders desire to create a champagne different from any other. Young and dynamic, it was established in 1981 – making it the first Champagne house to be established in more than a century – and quickly earnt a reputation for elegant wines with real style. The challenges involved in taking on the big names of Champagne may have fazed lesser men than Bruno, but he certainly rose to the challenge. Over the last three decades he, alongside daughter Alice, have turned this eponymous business into one of the most prestigious in Champagne. . . . . . . @champagnebrunopaillard #champagnebrunopaillard #brunopaillard #paillard #bpchampagne #champagne #wine #frenchwine #winesoffrance #sparkling #fizz #sparklingwine #instachampagne #newwavechampagne #finestchampagne #somm #sommelier #sommlife #sommelierlife #winelover #winegeek #winestagram #drinkstagram #bar #barlife #bartender #bartenderlife #blancdeblanc #prestige

The Bisol family are masters of Prosecco, and what current CEO Gianluca Bisol doesn’t know about it, isn’t worth knowing. The family has been making wine in the region for five centuries, and all the grapes are sourced from their own land on the steep hills of Valdobbiadene. Growing in this terroir is difficult; known as ‘heroic viticulture’, it involves navigating steep and rocky slopes that make cultivating grapes significantly more challenging than in other areas. The results, though, are well worth it. Bisol’s dedication, passion and skill shines through in their exemplary range of delicate, fresh Proseccos, some of the finest the region has to offer. . . . . . . @bisolprosecco #bisol #bisolprosecco #prosecco #valdobbiadene #wine #italianwine #winesofitaly #valdobbiadenewine #winesofvaldobbiadene #sparkling #sparklingwine #proseccotime #proseccobubbles #wine #winelover #winestagram #winelover #winery #winetasting #proseccosuperiore #somm #sommelier #sommlife #sommelierlife #vineyard #docg #italianwines #italiansparkling #drinkstagram

How do you make a coffee even better than it already is? Getting it in an Espresso Martini, of course. This humble cocktail has risen through the ranks to be one of the nation’s favourites, even boasting its own dedicated bars. Who knew caffeine could taste that delicious? We’re big fans of this Espresso Martini from M Restaurant, served up alongside a light dessert of white chocolate ice cream, yuzu fudge, sesame and pear. The perfect dessert; delicate yet decadent. Cheers to that! . . . . . . @mrestaurants #internationalcoffeeday #espressomartini #cocktail #espressomartinis #coffeecocktail #coffee #caffeine #cocktails #cocktailsofinstagram #instacocktail #boozycoffee #coffeelove #coffeeloversonly #coffeecommunity #coffeeholic #bar #drinkstagram #bartender #bartenderlife #happyhour #drinksmenu #cocktaillife #mixology #vodka #espresso #martini #dessert #digestif #dessertdrink
In need of some #MondayMotivation? Us too. That’s why we’re turning our attention to all things sparkling in the run up to the festive season, and celebrating some of our favourite fizz producers. What better way to add a bit of sparkle to your day? 😉 ✨ First up in our Fizz focus is Ridgeview Wines. A giant of the English sparkling scene since its inception in 1995, Ridgeview produce world-class wines using traditional methods and varieties, that hold their own against even the most renowned Champagne houses. Located at the base of the chalky South Downs, they have been one of the dominant influencers in English sparkling wine production in the past 24 years, attaining hundreds of medals and trophies – including IWSC’s prestigious ‘International Winemaker of the Year’ award in 2018, making them the the first English winery in history to earn the accolade. On top of that, they’re rumoured to be a royal favourite, having been served up regularly at Buckingham Palace. Nothing says quintessential, quality English quite like that, right? . . . . . . @ridgeviewwineuk @winegb #ridgeview #ridgeviewwine #ridgeviewwineuk #winesofengland #winesofgb #winesofsussex #sussex #england #englishwine #englishwinemaking #englishsparkling #englishsparklingwine #wine #sparkling #fizz #lifeisforcelebrating #southdowns #somm #sommlife #sommelier #sommelierlife #winelover #winegeek #winestagram #drinklocal #british #celebrateengland
