Long Term Pre-arrival Definition: Ordering wine directly through us from our supplier partners in Europe in advance of the item’s physical arrival in the US.
Long Term Pre-arrival sales ensure you’re getting the best possible price and that you have also secured the product before it hits the normal retail supply chain. The lead time for Pre-arrival goods is generally 4–8 months, sometimes longer based on supply chain and the logistics of transporting goods overseas. The expectation, from our team, is to communicate to the customer the location of their purchase every step of the way.
This product is offered as a full case purchase option, minimum order quantities may be applicable. When available, multiple case options will be presented. If you are purchasing a Pre-Arrival item you must order a solid case.

The sparkling wines of Champagne have been revered by wine drinkers for hundreds of years, and even today they maintain their reputation for excellence of flavor and character, and are consistently associated with quality, decadence, and a cause for celebration. Their unique characteristics are partly due to the careful blending of a small number of selected grape varietals, most commonly Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. These grapes, blended in fairly equal quantities, give the wines of Champagne their wonderful flavors and aromas, with the Pinot Noir offering length and backbone, and the Chardonnay varietal giving its acidity and dry, biscuity nature. It isn't unusual to sometimes see Champagne labeled as 'blanc de blanc', meaning it is made using only Chardonnay varietal grapes, or 'blanc de noir', which is made solely with Pinot Noir.

Winery Notes
A wine with a crystalline, golden yellow color. Many tiny and fairly persistent bubbles are expressed.
Its accentuated bouquet pampers us with hints of ripe apple, mango, pineapple, bergamot, tea tree and Mediterranean herbs, where thyme stands out. We also sense a gentle hint of bread crust, butter, vanilla and roasted nuts.
It is a bone-dry sparkling wine that reveals softness and perceptible warmth on the palate, with a youthful freshness standing out. Its bubbles caress and pamper us with a distinctive mineral signature. Its intense taste expresses in a structured and persistence presence of accentuated elegance. Flavours of citrus, tropics and herbs are repeated in the mouth.
It is a harmonious sparkling wine that seduces and refreshes in its essence.
Suitable for a sparkling occasion in the company of friends. Fish carpaccio will pop next to it, and it will perfectly accompany pasta with seafood. Also, with salmon tartar with a touch of Asia.
