The wonderful Christmas season and enjoying a Glass of Bubbly is all about creating memories and enjoying moments with the ones you love

Speaking with two incredible people from the Knightor team, I asked them to share with us one of the most memorable experiences they’ve enjoyed with a Glass of Bubbly?

“I remember attending a masterclass on Proseccos from Asolo at London Wine Fair and being taken aback by the history, quality and variety of wines coming out of the region. I highly recommend trying a bottle of Asolo when you get a chance!” – Liam Matthews – Sales Manager at Knightor

“Probably the memory that sticks out would be sitting outside in the sun on the banks of the Loire, tasting Cremants.” – David Brocklehurst – Winemaker at Knightor

“The exciting and much anticipated announcement each year is for the World’s Finest to discover who joins a prestigious line-up of past winery winners which includes Champagne Deutz with their 2010 Blanc de Blancs, Villa Sandi with their traditional method Serenissima and Ferrari Trento with their Guilio Ferrari 2005…. As the evening was progressing to the finale and coffee being delivered to the tables, Oliver Walkey of Glass of Bubbly made the all important announcement that the title of the World’s Finest was coming back to England once again with Knightor victorious with their select label being that of the 2015 Blanc de Blancs limited edition.” – Christopher Walkey – Founder of Glass of Bubbly
