A glass of Ruinart Blanc de Blancs Champagne NV

Ruinart is the oldest House of Champagne, founded in 1729 by Nicolas Ruinart, thus fulfilling the ambition of his uncle, Dom Thierry Ruinart, who had foreseen the potential of sparkling wine at the beginning of the century. Blanc de Blancs, meaning a white wine from white grapes, is a delicate rounded Champagne with aromas of white stone fruits such as peach, and citrus. The palate is pure, distinct & clear-cut. Evolves in the mouth, fluctuating between freshness, suppleness & fullness.

Sandwiches:
Smoked salmon and dill
Cucumber and balsamic vinegar
Egg salad
Roast beef with horseradish cream
Arugula, tomato and cheddar

Scones, house made preserves, clotted cream
Berry tart
Carrot cake
Cupcakes

Choice of Harney & Sons Tea:

White Vanilla Grapefruit
White teas enriched by vanilla and brightened by grapefruit bring forth the cleansing White Vanilla Grapefruit tea. Each refreshing brew reveals light and smooth citrus tones. The indulgent vanilla aroma is pleasantly surprising and suggestive of chocolate. The whimsical fusion of white teas, vanilla, and fresh citrus makes for a complex yet wonderful equation.

New Vithanakande
This extra special Ceylon makes the perfect afternoon tea, and can handle milk and sugar if that is your preference. The black leaf has a silver streak running through it and the taste is very "round" and satisfying.
