Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Graves-style blend with an intensely floral aroma, followed by zesty, refreshing gooseberryish fruit filled out with richness and body and topped off with a grapefruity snap of tangy acidity.

Marks has always made a virtue of its champagnes. This sumptuously rich and toasty blanc de blancs all-chardonnay vintage from Côtes des Blancs seamlessly combines floral aromas with a richly textured cushion of foaming bubbles.
