Jo Landron grows grapes almost as well as he grows moustaches (seriously, it's worth a google search). This is a beautiful Loire Crémant, made in a méthode traditionnelle style using biodynamically grown Folle Blanche and Pinot Noir. It's intensely mineral-driven, with flint and mineral salts leading into racy citrus and nectarine. There's just the right amount of gentle leesy texture to soften the edges, making for a complex and fantastically priced alternative to Champagne.

Jo Landron Atmosphere Sparkling NV

Brilliant méthode traditionelle sparkling made from equal parts Chenin Blanc & Chardonnay. There’s aromatic lemon rind, crunchy stone fruits, chalky minerality & doughy biscuit in an altogether poised offering. Classy.
