Pommery Apanage 1874 Champagne

The name Apanage 1874 pays homage to a defining moment in Champagne history. In 1874, Madame Pommery changed the direction of Champagne forever by introducing the Brut Style. A drier, fresher style of wine that moved away from the sweeter Champagnes popular at the time.

Unlike Pommery’s house styles, which focus on freshness and drinkability, Apanage 1874 is created with complexity and food pairing in mind. The wine reveals itself gradually, beginning with delicate floral notes before developing into richer layers of citrus, brioche and honey. Its texture is one of its defining features, offering a smooth, velvety mouthfeel balanced by the freshness and minerality that runs through the wine.

• The nose is beautifully aromatic, with an elegant bouquet of white flowers. Notes of hawthorn and jasmine lead the way, followed by refreshing Sorrento lemon and delicate citrus aromas.
• The palate begins with a smooth and delicate buttery texture before revealing flavours of white nectarine and ripe citrus fruit.
• Long, full-bodied and elegant. Citrus zest brings freshness to the finish, balancing the richer brioche and honey notes while leaving a beautifully clean and refined impression.

With its refined texture, layered flavours and beautifully long finish, Apanage 1874 is a Champagne made for special occasions, memorable meals and those looking for something beyond the everyday.
