Sparkling Without the Sermon

Serious bubbles, zero lecture — and not a single Champagne in sight

Here is a quietly radical proposition: the world’s finest sparkling wine does not come exclusively from Champagne.

Six bottles. Five countries’ worth of geography. The Loire Valley. The Sussex Downs. Catalonia. The Sonoma Coast. The Burgundian hills. Each one made with the same obsessive attention to method and terroir that defines great traditional sparkling wine — and each one priced at a fraction of what a comparable bottle from Reims or Épernay would cost. This is the pack for the person who loves great bubbles and has no particular interest in paying for the postcode.

🌸 The Bottles

1

Château de Mauny 2020 Rosé Crémant de Loire Brut

Loire Valley · Crémant de Loire · Rosé Brut · 2020

The Loire opener — pink, pretty, and made by the same method as Champagne

Crémant de Loire is produced by the same traditional method as Champagne — second fermentation in bottle, extended lees aging, hand disgorging — but from the Loire Valley’s indigenous varieties and at prices that make Champagne producers quietly uncomfortable. Château de Mauny’s rosé is bright and strawberry-scented with fine persistent bubbles and a clean, refreshing finish. It’s the bottle you open first, before anyone has thought to ask what’s for dinner. Start here.

Wiston Estate NV Brut Sussex England

Sussex · English Sparkling Wine · Traditional Method · Non-Vintage

The English one — and the one that stops conversations

England’s sparkling wine industry has quietly become one of the most exciting developments in the fine wine world over the past decade — the chalk downs of Sussex are geologically identical to the Champagne region, and the cool maritime climate is producing wines of genuine complexity and finesse. Wiston Estate is one of the finest producers in the country. Their Brut is precise and mineral, with green apple, brioche and a chalky backbone that is thoroughly convincing. Pour it blind. Watch people struggle to place it. Reveal England. Watch the room change.

Wiston Estate NV Rosé Sussex England

Sussex · English Sparkling Wine · Rosé · Traditional Method · Non-Vintage

Same estate. Same chalk. A completely different wine.

Tasting the Wiston Brut alongside the Wiston Rosé from the same estate and the same vintage base is one of the most instructive exercises the pack offers. The rosé adds a dimension of red fruit and warmth — strawberry, a hint of cream, riper and more immediately generous than its sibling — while retaining the same fine mousse and mineral precision that marks all great traditional method wine from this corner of England. The most immediately seductive of the two Wistons, and the one most likely to convert the sceptics.

4

Bohigas NV Cava Brut Reserva

Cataloña · Cava · Brut Reserva · Xarel·lo / Macabeo / Parellada · Non-Vintage

Cava done properly — which is to say, nothing like what most people think Cava is

Bohigas is a family estate that has been farming the Penèdes since the 14th century — which gives their Cava a provenance that most Spanish wine producers can only dream of. The Brut Reserva is made from the traditional Catalan varieties: Xarel·lo, Macabeo and Parellada, grown on limestone soils that bring real mineral character to the wine. Extended lees aging adds depth and a satisfying toasty complexity. Dry, precise, food-friendly and priced at a fraction of what comparable quality costs in Champagne. The value bottle of the pack and one of the most honest sparkling wines made anywhere.

5

Mirabelle by Schramsberg Brut Rosé NV

North Coast California · Sparkling Rosé · Traditional Method · Non-Vintage

Schramsberg’s approachable label — and one of California’s most reliably excellent sparkling rosés

Schramsberg is the benchmark California sparkling house — their bottles have been poured at White House state dinners since Nixon — and Mirabelle is their accessible, North Coast expression. Made by the traditional method with extended lees aging, it shows everything that Schramsberg does well: real precision, vivid red berry fruit, fine mousse and a California warmth that makes it immediately likeable. The friendliest bottle in the pack and one of the easiest to recommend without qualification.

6

Montgermont NV Crémant de Bourgogne Blanc de Noirs Brut

Burgundy · Crémant de Bourgogne · Blanc de Noirs · Pinot Noir · Non-Vintage

The closer — Burgundian Pinot Noir fermented to white sparkling wine, and the most serious bottle in the pack

A Blanc de Noirs is a white wine made entirely from red grapes — Pinot Noir pressed gently and quickly before the colour has a chance to transfer. Montgermont’s Crémant de Bourgogne version is the most structured and complex bottle in the pack: rich and full-bodied for a sparkling wine, with brioche, red apple, a hint of mushroom earthiness and the vinous depth that only comes from Pinot Noir. It’s the bottle that rewards the most attention and closes the evening on the most thoughtful note. Save it for last. Let the room wind down with Burgundy on its breath.
