In 1911, Georges Bollinger’s British agent suggested swapping the full designation of “brut sans année” for the English word “special” to better convey this Champagne’s outstanding qualities - and a star was born. For over a century, connoisseurs have returned to Bollinger Special Cuvée for its subtlety, consistency, and the glamour it brings to everyday occasions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA delicate mix of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Meunier grapes, Special Cuvée is cellar-aged for double the length required by appellation regulations. It’s equally delectable when enjoyed on its own, mixed into a mimosa or paired with seafood, full-bodied cheeses or richer meats like venison or beef.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBollinger Special Cuvée is the label of choice for spoiling loved ones who enjoy the finer things in life. To enhance its unique style, bouquet and aromas, Special Cuvée is best served between 8 and 10°C. You can enjoy Special Cuvée right away in a flute to conserve its effervescence, in a coupe to allow its flavours to develop, or choose to age it in your cellar.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e60% Pinot Noir, 25% Chardonnay, 15% Meunier. Over 85% Grands and Premiers crus. Exclusive use of the cuvée.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Maker:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor almost two hundred years, Champagne Bollinger has been making powerful, refined and complex wines that express the aromas of fruit in all its dimensions. In 1829, Athanase de Villermont’s vast estate just outside the town of Äy provided the backdrop for the founding of an extraordinary Champagne house - but as an aristocrat, Athanese was forbidden from engaging in commercial trade. With the recruitment of Joseph “Jacques” Bollinger, a Champagne merchant, and Paul Renaudin, a Champernois fascinated by the world of wine, the Bollinger legacy began.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Bollinger style is inimitable and recognised as such by great connoisseurs. It possesses a dense and subtle presence: a balance of the intensity of great Pinot Noirs and the freshness of Chardonnays from the Côte des Blancs. The house’s offerings are rooted in 5 tangible principles: the vineyards; Pinot Noir; magnums of reserve wines; the barrels, and time. Bollinger wines release a creamy effervescence resulting from vinifying in oak barrels and prolonged contact with the yeasts. Every tasting yields new delights that are guaranteed to transport you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Vineyard:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBollinger has built its vineyards at the heart of the finest crus in Champagne. 180 hectares of vines are made up of 85% Grand and Premier crus and are farmed by our teams of growers across 7 separate vineyards: Aÿ, Avenay, Tauxières, Louvois and Verzenay for Pinot Noir; the Montagne de Reims, Cuis for Chardonnay; and the Côte des Blancs and Champvoisy for Meunier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother of Bollinger’s distinctive features are the two plots of Clos Saint-Jacques and Chaudes Terres. There, ungrafted vines are entirely tended by hand and reproduced using a form of layering called provignage, preserving the extraordinary heritage from which the Vieilles Vignes Françaises cuvée is produced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePinot Noir is the varietal on which Bollinger has staked its reputation. A demanding grape that requires care at every step, it remains front and centre because of the incomparable finesse it brings to a wine. Today, the Pinot Noir planted around the Montagne de Reims represents over 60% of the Bollinger vineyards. This also just happens to be the exact proportion it occupies in Special Cuvée! Multi-faceted and surprising, its unusually high ratio in the blends is a signature of the Bollinger style, to which it lends power, body and vinosity. It has been one of the founding principles of Champagne Bollinger’s identity from the very beginning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBollinger is guided by a responsibility anchored in time and a commitment to people, the earth and our roots.

Adèle focused on vineyards and winemaking while Pierre Nicolas focused on sales and marketing. Shipments to Great Britain began in 1815, followed by the United States in 1837. After Charles Perrier, Henri Gallice and his younger brother Octave became Perrier-Jouët directors. Octave, an art lover, met Emile Gallé in Paris and requested a design for Maison Perrier-Jouët, which became the iconic emblem of the brand. One of the world's oldest champagnes, a Perrier-Jouët vintage 1825, was opened and tasted in 2009. Harold Macmillan, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1957 to 1963, favoured vintage Perrier-Jouët. This passion has been passed down through the generations, shaping the House's philosophy of creative freedom and unconventional observation of nature. Maison Perrier-Jouët's affinity with the Art Nouveau movement is expressed through the emblematic anemone motif illustrated by Emile Gallé in 1902. Today, the House continues to reinvent luxury by collaborating with artists to create an extravagant universe. Along with their unique legacy, such as the creation of their first brut champagne in 1842 and the iconic floral Cuvée named Belle Epoque Cuvée, Perrier-Jouët also made history with the appointment of the first woman to hold the position of cellar master in 2020. Perrier-Jouët produces a wide range of vintage and non-vintage cuvée, with an annual production of approximately 3,000,000 bottles. The pride of the brand is its prestige label, Belle Epoque. With 266 acres of vineyards situated in the heart of Champagne, Perrier-Jouët maintains control over the quality and consistency of its champagne production. More than half of its vineyards are located in the Grand Crus of Cramant and Avize, allowing Perrier-Jouët to create exceptional champagne that is unparalleled in quality and taste. Today, as a member of the Pernod Ricard group of brands, Perrier-Jouët's legacy of exceptional champagne-making continues to thrive and evolve. Through their dedication to quality and innovation, Perrier-Jouët remains one of the most respected and iconic champagne brands in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sc-a6dfc828-0 jJxHux\" data-testid=\"youchat-text\"\u003ePerrier-Jouët Grand Brut is a champagne with a rich heritage that dates back to 1846, when Maison Perrier-Jouët revolutionized the world of champagne with its historic Cuvée K. This groundbreaking champagne was the first of its kind, introducing the concept of a lightly dosed champagne, now known as \"brut\". During a time when champagnes typically contained high sugar levels reaching up to 40%, Cuvée K dared to be different. It was dosed at a sugar level of less than 5%, a daringly low amount for that era. This truly marked a turning point in the history of champagne, as Maison Perrier-Jouët paved the way for the rise of brut champagnes. The success of Cuvée K can be attributed to Maison Perrier-Jouët's philosophy of using high-quality grapes that required very little added sugar. This commitment to sourcing exceptional grapes has been a guiding principle for the House throughout the years, allowing them to craft brut champagnes that maintain the purity and integrity of the fruit. Perrier-Jouët Grand Brut carries on this legacy, remaining true to Maison Perrier-Jouët's philosophy of minimal sugar dosage. It is a champagne that beautifully showcases the natural qualities of the grapes used in its creation, resulting in a vibrant and expressive taste experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sc-a6dfc828-0 jJxHux\" data-testid=\"youchat-text\"\u003ePerrier-Jouët Grand Brut NV 375 ml is a champagne that captivates with its silvery gold hue in the glass.

This Grand Cru village, strategically located at the intersection of three key vineyards, provided fertile ground for his enterprise. Pierlot passed the company to his son, Alphonse, who, lacking heirs, entrusted it to cellar master Eugène Laurent. After Laurent's untimely death in 1887, his widow, Mathilde-Emilie Perrier, took charge, introducing her \"Grand Vin Sans Sucre\" in 1889, catering to evolving tastes.

The renowned Champagne house, founded in the late 1700s, is still owned and operated by the Roederer family. Their signature style consists of an equal blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, with a touch of Pinot Meunier, which comprises approximately one-fifth of the blend. Louis Roederer's most famous wine is Cristal, a prestigious Champagne that has captured the hearts of wine enthusiasts worldwide. The house was founded in 1833 and aimed to capture foreign markets, particularly Russia. Roederer became the wine of choice for the Russian royal family, and Cristal was created for Tsar Alexander II. Louis Roederer acquired grand cru vineyards in Champagne in 1845, which was unusual for the time as most houses were buying grapes from growers. Today, the Roederer vineyards encompass around 240 hectares of land, with around 25% managed biodynamically. This commitment to sustainable farming practices is a testament to the house's dedication to producing high-quality wines that are both delicious and environmentally responsible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!-- x-tinymce\/html --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhilosophy\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt Louis Roederer, the philosophy is grounded in the belief that the true essence of Champagne is born from the land.
