Flowers and chocolates are both popular Valentine’s Day gifts. Champagne and sparkling wine are also really great for celebrating this romantic occasion. If you are searching the perfect gift for your Valentine, consider something bubbly and fun!
There’s something about bubbly that makes every sip feel like a celebration. Champagne is such a popular drink that even those who don’t fancy wine love toasting with sparkling wine. In most cases, champagne is served to guests when they arrive or at the beginning of an event. It helps set the mood for the rest of the evening. New Year’s Eve is the exception in this case since toasting occurs at midnight.
Champagne Philippe Gonet is a wonderful option to consider as it is fine, elegant, well balance and very delicate, as your valentine’s night must be!!!

A man, a woman
The beginnings are of Virtues, a predestined name. Chantal and Pierre were pressed into service to do so after the untimely death of their father Philippe. At 22 years old, she had made an eloquent journey at the Ecole Polytechnique Feminine (ETH), then completed her diploma in viticulture and oenology in Beaune at age 23. The awareness of a dual affiliation to a 6 generations winegrower line and to a fabulous terroir, was to bond the brother and the sister.
A profound sense of responsibility and the unwavering desire to go further did the rest. Chantal lived with her young family in Singapore where she traded by the love of the family’s champagne. Pierre alone learned his trade.
The irremediable absence of their father, instead of weakening the champagne, reinforced its design and ambition of excellence: to create champagnes, worthy of the mythical terroirs grand cru of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger where the Gonet family was housed since 1910 when Charles Gonet, the founder’s son, married to Marie-Louise Gardien daughter of a winemaker, leaned every day on his plots. Charles loved commerce, whose talent invaded the markets of France.
In the 1950s, Jacques, his charming and worldly son, seduced the spheres of luxury, haute couture, gastronomy, the chefs of Lenôtre and Lucas-Carton who became his friend.
Agronomic science and oenology applied by Philippe, brilliant engineer, moved the Gonet bubbles from the courtyard to the champagne elite.
