Past Experiences - Champagne Long Lunch

A long lunch of fine Champagne

In the heart of Melbourne, on Sunday 19 February, 2023, LANGTONS gathered 20 fizz fanatics for a long lunch of fine Champagne at Society. Alongside a marvellous four-course menu, LANGTONS poured 13 vintage cuvees from Champagne’s Grandes Marques, including Louis Roederer, Moët & Chandon, and Veuve Clicquot. Ned Goodwin MW was on hand to guide guests through seven glorious vintages, including a final bracket of the fêted 2002.
