11. Alexandre Penet Extra Brut Champagne
Check Price
The Maison Penet is a family-owned Champagne grower. A Champagne grower owns and maintains its vineyards, produces and releases its Champagnes under its own brand label. Alexandre Penet Extra Brut Champagne is a tremendous, niche grower Champagne made expression.
Being extra Brut, it’s very dry on the palate with a lot of minerality, but being a grower champagne style, it means you also get a lot of character and individuality. If you are looking to get into harder to find, but equally authentic Champagne varieties guaranteed to spark comment and conversation, this Alexandre Penet is a great dry champagne option to sample.
12. Armand De Brignac Demi Sec
Check Price
Demi Sec is one of the sweetest types of French Champagne. Armand De Brignac, with its metalized, handmade bottles, impeccable luxury boxes, and stylized Ace of Spades label, is almost impossible to miss. Armand de Brignac spares no expense, either in grapes, manufacture, or presentation of the premium Champagne.
The liquid within this Demi Sec offers a candy-like sweet Champagne that is truly unique and decadent, featuring toasted brioche, candied citrus, honey, and blackberries. If you are looking to make a splash and have the money to purchase a premier label (with a truly epic-looking bottle), Armand De Brignac expressions are certain to get tongues wagging.
13. Pol Roger Brut Reserve
Check Price
Pol Roger Brut Réserve NV “White Foil” is the brand’s most famous Champagne, a favorite of Sir Winston Churchill, and bottle served at all British Royal Weddings (including Meghan and Harry’s). A dry champagne, its longer than the normal resting period in bottle lends Pol Roger a toasty, fruit-laden aroma and palate, balanced by stone accents and high acidity. It’s an excellent, mid-priced Champagne in which all types of drinkers will recognize its sturdy quality, whether for a large gathering or at a more intimate setting.
