Domaine Evremond launched at Westminster Abbey in 2015, making English Sparkling Wine history. A unique partnership between Champagne Taittinger and their British friends, Hatch Mansfield, this marked the first time that a Champagne house had invested in the United Kingdom with the ambition of producing a top quality sparkling wine. Domaine Evremond takes its name from Charles de Saint-Évremond (1613-1703), a Frenchman and the first true ambassador for the wines of Champagne, who fuelled its popularity in England at the court of Charles II. A poet, epicurean and literary critic, he was buried in Poet’s Corner in Westminster Abbey. The Taittinger family, passionate historians, have always been inspired by the Evremond story and named their own historic venture in his memory. From the beginning, the search for a suitable site was focussed on Kent with its reputation as ‘The Garden of England’. Known as one of the warmest, driest counties in England, combined with its free draining chalk soils, the regional profile mirrors that of Champagne.
750 mlThe first edition of the Classic Cuvée comprises from Domaine Evremond's original plots, across two vintages. The intention was to create a cuvée that expresses the heart and soul of Domaine Evremond. The Kentish terroir, with its chalky soils and oceanic influence, is translated through the wine’s mineral profile and tangible precision. It is a blend of pinot noir, chardonnay, and pinot,meunier.
