Organic Week Collection
When you want your champagne to not only taste fabulous, but be as healthy as possible, why not consider champagnes produced using organic farming?
Organically grown vines deliver healthier grapes and wine that has been created without chemicals. Smaller vineyards and houses are best placed to utilise organic production as the Vignerons have more control over their land and vines.
Continuing our focus on organics for National Organic Week we have put together a special collection of champagnes produced using organic methods and some 'organically certified' and have a very special offer: Buy any 2 or more and geet 10% off!
Enjoy 10% off any two or more in our Organic Week Collection using code OW10. This offer ends midnight Monday 14 September.
Not valid with other offers. Remember: Standard shipping is free with Emperor when you spend $200 or more.

An example would be, working the soil and allowing grass to grow between the vines. The wines are aged on lees and clarified by natural settling without filtration or fining. Producer Jerome Dehours is a member of the 'Les Artisans du Champagne', which brings together high quality, mostly single estate champagne producers for an annual tasting. Dehours is one of Champagne’s most exciting estates making stylish and expertly crafted wines with a careful approach and excellent quality.
