The Grower Champagne movement is becoming increasingly famous in Asia. It first started with Jacques Selosse many years ago, followed by Francis Egly and recently the famous Cedric Bouchard. Nowadays, more than 20 small wineries in Champagne are leading the game with new stars like Ulysse Collin or Emmanuel Brochet coming into the spotlight. You can often identify these wineries by the letters R.M. on the back label (R.M. = Récoltant‐Manipulant, meaning they grow and handle, i.e. make Champagne out of their own grapes).

 

For this evening Julien Froger from L’Imperatrice Fine Wines will guide us through a tutored wine tasting of 12 fantastic Grower Champagnes and 2 rare Coteaux de Champagne (red wine). The tasting will be accompanied by a sumptuous dinner put together and prepared by Executive Chef Tsang from the famous 2 Star Michelin restaurant Ming Court at the Langham Place Hotel.
