Description

Clouet's Grand Reserve Brut is made with 100% Pinot Noir from Montagne de Reims, widely recognised as one of Champagne's most powerful Pinot Noir producing regions. With four years on lees and 50% reserve wine Clouet have harnessed that power and produced a wine of remarkable elegance.

Layers of soft red fruits on the nose give way to ripe stone fruit and a delicious bready note. The bead is soft and long.

Well loved by a vast array of press for both style, consistency, and value this is certainly one to add to your celebratory shopping lists.

<P>My Stainless Steel Giants</P>
<P>When I was a little boy, I loved walking around the wine-making cellar.</P>

<P>In my imagination, the enormous wine tanks transformed and became champions, guardians protectors of the wine…My Heros! Creaking, wheezing, groaning, squealing, sweating…sometimes they even seemed to be laughing!. I watched the noisy show, as some were gushing from of their nozzles, while others were being filled up. I grew up learning to play with my heros who live in the wine-cellars.


Each has its own name and personality to share and their attributes come alive in the wines:

Superman, Zeus, and Thor lend their power to the Cuvée Grande Reserve.


Laser, D’artagnan and Zorro transmit their intensity, tension and minerality to the Brut Silver.


Sophie Marceau, Heather Locklear and Michelle Pheiffer flirt beautifully with the Rosé.


Rocky comes out swinging to make a Dream Vintage!


As I blend to create champagne, I work to find the perfect balance of characteristics, that come from all my remarkable, dauntless heros: the Stainless Steel Giants.

92 Points - "Incredible value for a blanc de noirs (100% Pinot Noir) grower Champagne from the grand cru vineyards of Bouzy. It shows gorgeous aromas of stone fruit, citrus and strawberry, with complex brioche nuances, remarkable balance, ongoing elegance and a rich, refined, persistent finish."-Stacy Slinkard (Decanter)

91 Points - "The NV Brut Grand Réserve Grand Cru is a pure Pinot Noir from Bouzy. It's pure, fresh, fine and aromatic on the nose and round and delicate on the palate. The fruit-intense finish is chalky-mineral and stimulatingly fresh in its salty finesse and elegant yeastiness. Nice lemon juice flavors give an extra kick of refreshment. This is a picture-book NV Brut. No indication of disgorgement given. Tasted with Jean-François Clouet's German importer in Bremen."-Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate)

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
