Their names often have biblical origins: the Jeroboam (3 litres) is named after the first king of the northern Kingdom of Israel, while the Methuselah (6 litres) recalls the long-lived patriarch in the Book of Genesis, suggesting longevity and significance. The name \"Nebuchadnezzar\" for the large-format Champagne bottle (holding 15 litres, or 20 standard bottles) comes from the historical figure Nebuchadnezzar II, the powerful king of the Neo-Babylonian Empire who ruled in the 6th century BCE. Known for his grand ambitions, monumental constructions like the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, and military conquests, Nebuchadnezzar symbolized power, grandeur, and a larger-than-life presence. This choice of name reflects the scale and majesty of the bottle size, aligning with the idea of abundance and celebration that such a large Champagne bottle brings to any occasion. Larger bottles offer both practical and experiential benefits—since Champagne matures more slowly in these formats, the wine develops complex flavours' and finer bubbles, creating an elevated taste. Large formats are also perfect for large gatherings, weddings, corporate events, and holiday parties, where they offer not just an impressive visual but also a communal experience as guests gather to pour from a shared, grand bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e","image":{"created_at":"2024-10-30T12:29:08+11:00","alt":null,"width":1080,"height":1080,"src":"\/\/emperorchampagne.com.au\/cdn\/shop\/collections\/SPRING_RACING_2024_OFFER_INSTAGRAM_POSTS_TILE_4.jpg?v=1730251750"}},{"id":269897105517,"handle":"big-bottles-magnums-and-more","title":"Big Bottles - Large formats","updated_at":"2024-12-24T08:15:03+11:00","body_html":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIs bigger always better?

For example, nitrogen fixing plants to pull air into the soil, growing cover crops to attracts insects - a natural remedy for farming problems, or having small sheep graze the grass and weeds between the vine rows. The challenge however in a region like Champagne lies in its dual climatic influence. Sitting at the most northerly latitude, it is swayed by both maritime and continental weather. The regions’ tempestuous climate can wreak havoc on the vineyards and so it is necessary to use certain treatments otherwise this can prove fatal to crops. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRead the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/emperorchampagne.com.au\/blogs\/the-emperor-edition\/biodynamic-organic-viticulture-in-modern-day-winemaking\" title=\"Biodynamic \u0026amp; Organic Viticulture in Modern Day Winemaking\"\u003efull article here\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2019-05-07T20:04:42+10:00","sort_order":"created-desc","template_suffix":"","disjunctive":true,"rules":[{"column":"tag","relation":"equals","condition":"Organic"},{"column":"tag","relation":"equals","condition":"Taste: Organic"}],"published_scope":"global"},{"id":80131489901,"handle":"pinot-meunier-focus","title":"Pinot Meunier Focus","updated_at":"2024-12-21T10:15:02+11:00","body_html":"","published_at":"2018-12-02T12:14:08+11:00","sort_order":"best-selling","template_suffix":"","disjunctive":true,"rules":[{"column":"tag","relation":"equals","condition":"Taste: Pinot Meunier"}],"published_scope":"global"},{"id":269999243373,"handle":"pre-order-october-2021","title":"Pre-Order","updated_at":"2024-12-18T20:00:02+11:00","body_html":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/files\/New-arrivals-2021-Landing-page-banner_1bf95918-cf22-478e-9523-30c57e973f53_480x480.jpg?v=1635228762\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMark your calendars!

Created by the founder of the House, Eugène Moussé, 100 years ago, this perpetual cuvée pays tribute to the rich history of the family and estate. Started in 2003, the cuvée was initially called Carte Or, then Or Tradition, then L’Or d’Eugène. The centenary year marks a restructuring of the range with the arrival of Eugène.
The wine is gorgeous deep gold, almost bronze in colour with spiced pear and orange cake notes on the nose. Rich and expansive on the palate with a supple body, underlying freshness and a play between slightly bitter walnut and fresh pear.
This is based on green clay soils which are unique in this part of the Marne valley and the profile shows this. We love the cleanliness and purity of fruit that sits firmly in the orchard spectrum and then opens out to quince and some apricot. Excellent value champagne that will get you to look at Blanc de Noirs differently.
About The House
A grower since 1750, Champagne Moussé sits in the village of Cuisles, in a valley perpendicular to the Vallée de la Marne. This side valley has a unique soil in Champagne: a schist subsoil under clay. While Pinot Meunier often struggles to be taken seriously in Champagne, at Moussé, Pinot Meunier is celebrated. 80% of the vines planted are Meunier, with the balance planted to Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. This agency is the first member of Club Trésors de Champagne to make a Spécial Club wine of 100% Pinot Meunier and the first Club member to produce a Rosé de Saignée Spécial Club. In the vineyards, Cedric Moussé adheres to a ‘lutte raisonée’ approach. He practices organic viticulture, using herbal infusions that act as ‘vitamins’ for the vines, cover crops, zero pesticides, and minimal doses of heavy metals like copper. His new winery, completed in 2012 may be deceiving; the modern facility leads us to believe this is a new operation. Solar panels power the cellar, tasting room, and 2 houses on the property, while geothermal energy moderates temperature throughout the winery. An underground spring provides enough water for irrigation on the farm. Moussé works almost exclusively in stainless steel, with the exception of a small amount of Pinot Meunier destined for his rosé. All cuvées undergo malolactic fermentation. The resulting wines seem to gush with red and dark fruits characteristic of Pinot Meunier, and a structured, saline minerality - Peter Liem
