Lea & Sandeman – Independent Champagne Retailer of the Year

Harper’s magazine is the wine trade’s leading review and at their recent annual champagne summit awards Lea & Sandeman were announced as the Independent Champagne Retailer of the Year.

We are delighted with this accolade, since we take great care in our selection of champagnes, from our house label Benedick, through our range of excellent quality growers champagnes, to our careful selection of Grandes Marques.

Unfortunately we do not have a photo of either Charles or me collecting the award, since although we had been told we were nominated, neither of us made it on the day which was a little embarrassing. Still, it saves us the blushes and spares you the discomfort of looking at Mr Lea or Mr Sandeman on your screen!
