Duval-Leroy's phenomenal bubblies have been our house favorites for a number of years, offering quality and value where other Champagne houses concentrate on ad campaigns and market share. What's the secret? As one of the few remaining family-run, large-scale production Champagne houses, Duval-Leroy maintains a level of control over their vineyards that results in better bubbly across the board. This non-vintage Brut is our go-to bottle of bubbles when it absolutely has to be Champagne and it can't go over budget. This Champagne boasts plenty of citrus and creamy hazelnut aromas and flavors for a price that leaves enough in the bank to splurge on more important things like crystal flutes and caviar.
