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":434061713,"handle":"bigbottles","updated_at":"2024-12-01T10:05:03+11:00","published_at":"2017-07-19T13:46:00+10:00","sort_order":"alpha-asc","template_suffix":"","published_scope":"global","title":"Big Bottles","body_html":"Why have a standard champagne bottle when you could have a BIG bottle?

- Iconic cuvée well-known in James Bond, in a spectacular Magnum format
- Pinot dominant style with generous reserve wines added (up to 60%)
- An iconic collector piece to keep for the special occasions. Comes in a gift box.
Benchmark Bollinger, fresh and vivacious, yet wonderfully resonant with all the depth and triumphant complexity that set Special Cuvée apart. A universe of complexity spans light years of black cherries, plums, fresh lemon zest, red apple, even the richness of ripe peach and fig.
Deep reserves allow primary fruit to speak articulately, reverberating softly with Bollinger’s signature notes of ginger, dried nectarine, mixed spice, toast, brioche, honey and roast nuts.
For all this, it upholds achingly pristine citrus zest freshness throughout, riding on a vibrant acid line, culminating in a masterful crescendo of fine, frothing, salt and iodine-infused minerality. Black cherry fruit lingers long and profound. Special Cuvée remains one of the finest entry NV's on the planet
About The House
Bollinger remain quite possibly one of the most famous family-owned champagne houses of all. Bollinger are well known for their dominance of the powerful and expressive pinot noir from Aÿ where they were founded, their use of magnums for production of all their wines and a traditional wine making style incorporating fermentation in oak barrels from which they have never deviated. They still have their own in-house cooper who makes and manages their stock of some 3,500 barrels! That equates to about 1 million bottles being fermented in barrel - that is the largest (along with Krug) of any other producer in the region. Currently Bollinger own some 164 hectares in some of the best sites across Champagne.
Technical Details
The complexity and richness of Special Cuvée is unparalleled among the entry-level non vintage blends of every champagne house, short of ascending to the mesosphere of Krug. Its grand recipe explains why. A blend of 60% pinot noir, 25% chardonnay and 15% meunier, it’s built on incredible depth of 50–60% reserves.
Further intensity is derived from 30–40% of the blend in oak barrels, and a very high proportion of grand cru and premier cru fruit sources (more than 85%). Post-blending, the wine matures for between three and four years on lees in the cellar before it is disgorged and a light dosage of 8g/L is added. This cuvée represents 90% of the production of the house – more than 2.5 million bottles annually.
