Food & Wine has developed a way to bring the essence of their beloved Food & Wine Classic event to consumers’ homes through virtual Holiday Edition tasting events on December 5.
Rather than emphasizing wintery reds, the publication’s longtime Wine Editor Ray Isle focuses on bubbles to enjoy all season long, including Champagne Bollinger Special Cuvée. He describes this non-vintage brut as gorgeous, and adds “Bollinger leans towards a richer style, full of toast and brioche notes; they’re one of my favorite Champagne houses. It’s really a Champagne that can be served straight through the meal; bring on the roast turkey, seriously.”

A journey of devotion, Special Cuvée’s powerful impact and elegant depth of flavor capture Bollinger’s distinct spirit. 30% ferments in neutral barrel for a silky texture while the reserve wines (hand-riddled and blended from magnum) contribute the signature aromas of an aged Champagne. Special Cuvée is layered with freshness, savor and spice, all in a velvety texture that truly stands apart.

Bollinger is one of the rare Grande Marques that’s still family owned. Known for its rich, elegant and polished style of Champagne, their outstanding wines are the result of rigorous attention to detail and incredibly labor-intensive practices that few houses are willing to undertake. Underscoring its excellence, Bollinger has remained British secret agent James Bond's Champagne of choice since 1973.
