SparklingNot all sparkling wines are created equal, but not all occasions call for actual Champagne either. Enter Pol Clement's Blanc de Blancs – the perfect solution for when you want something festive that won't demolish your budget. Made in the traditional method (the same as Champagne), but from Loire Valley grapes, this sparkler delivers serious quality at a fraction of the price. The term 'Blanc de Blancs' means it's made entirely from white grapes, giving it a crisp, elegant character that works beautifully as an aperitif or with lighter fare. It's the kind of bottle that's always worth having in the fridge – because you never know when you'll have something to celebrate, or when Tuesday simply needs a bit of sparkle. And at this price, you don't need to save it for special occasions – though it's certainly worthy of them.
