Idris Elba

Idris Elba, the British actor and producer. Another celebrity entering the drinks industry. He’s stepped into the world of wine with his brand Porte Noire. Porte Noire offers a range of wines sourced from various renowned wine regions around the world, including France, Italy, and Argentina.

An interesting fact here is that Porte Noire wines are curated by Elba himself, reflecting his taste preferences and commitment to excellence. He’s been involved in every step of the winemaking process, from selecting the grapes to overseeing the production and blending techniques.

We currently stock Porte Noire Blanc de Blancs 2010 Vintage Champagne. As a vintage Champagne, it reflects the characteristics of the specific year in which the grapes were harvested, offering a unique expression of the terroir and climate conditions of that particular vintage.

We also stock, Porte Noire Petite Porte Blanc de Blancs NV Champagne. In case you didn’t know, NV" stands for non-vintage, meaning it is a blend of wines from multiple years rather than being solely from a single vintage. However, this doesn’t impact its taste. The Petite Porte is a Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs showing notes of brioche, baked apple and pear with a hint of toasted almond and yellow plum.
