Big Bottles - Magnums and more
Is bigger always better? The age old question that is always up for debate no matter the subject! With champagne the answer is always yes because…bigger bottle = more champagne! The quality of wine is inherently better as the larger the bottle, the less exposure the wine has to oxygen. They look seriously impressive, adding a sense of drama to any occasion.
May it be magnums, jeroboams, methuzelahs and all the way up to nabuchadnezzars (15 litres!), who wouldn’t want to splurge a little bit more and taste a little bit more for that special occasion?

One of the first actions he took was to \u003c\/span\u003eoverhaul the entire operation in both the vineyards and cellars, eliminating chemical pesticides and herbicides, ploughing his vines, and installing a new press and other vinification equipment. Since then, he has been making refined, richly textured Champagnes.

As a treat, because Champagne Palmer was being newly introduced to New York City by Constellation Brands, I tasted its 1996 from Jeroboam (double magnum). After tasting all of the other very young Palmer Champagnes, the 1996 was a hedonistic pleasure to drink. This 1996, a great vintage, has entered its mature phase, drinking very well after 22 years, but should stay on this plateau for another five to ten years. It has secondary aromas and flavors of honey and dried red and black berries.

They called themselves 'Société des Grands Crus de la Champagne' because at the time, only growers that owned grand cru vineyards could join. Between them, they had grand cru vineyards in the areas of the Côte des Blancs and the Montagne de Reims and they banded together as they were seeking to make better wines than they could achieve separately. So how did the name come about? Well this truly is an interesting story and through our research we discovered some interesting facts. The founders at first tried to create an acronym using their initials to form a name, which you can imagine was frustrating and ended nowhere. At a loss with what to do, the story goes, a very famous biscuit company called Huntley \u0026amp; Palmer, based in Berkshire, UK, inspired them. They were biscuit makers to the Royal family and received Royal warrants by Napoleon III. Apparently as many imports were restricted during the war back in the 1940's, the people of Reims or Remois as they are referred to were prepared to pay more for a packet of biscuits than a bottle of champagne!

Vintage Brut 1996, Jeroboam (aged in Palmer’s cellars for more than 20 years; not available at retail). As a treat, because Champagne Palmer was being newly introduced to New York City by Constellation Brands, I tasted its 1996 from Jeroboam (double magnum). After tasting all of the other very young Palmer Champagnes, the 1996 was a hedonistic pleasure to drink. This 1996, a great vintage, has entered its mature phase, drinking very well after 22 years, but should stay on this plateau for another five to ten years. It has secondary aromas and flavors of honey and dried red and black berries. I had expected that the 1996, especially from a Jeroboam, might be too young, but it was virtually perfect and scored 97\". - Ed McCarthy | Wine Journalist \u0026amp; Educator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eEmperor is proud to have secured this small allocation with a total of 8 Jeroboam's in Australia.

They called themselves 'Société des Grands Crus de la Champagne' because at the time, only growers that owned grand cru vineyards could join. Between them, they had grand cru vineyards in the areas of the Côte des Blancs and the Montagne de Reims and they banded together as they were seeking to make better wines than they could achieve separately. So how did the name come about? Well this truly is an interesting story and through our research we discovered some interesting facts. The founders at first tried to create an acronym using their initials to form a name, which you can imagine was frustrating and ended nowhere. At a loss with what to do, the story goes, a very famous biscuit company called Huntley \u0026amp; Palmer, based in Berkshire, UK, inspired them. They were biscuit makers to the Royal family and received Royal warrants by Napoleon III. Apparently as many imports were restricted during the war back in the 1940's, the people of Reims or Remois as they are referred to were prepared to pay more for a packet of biscuits than a bottle of champagne! This inspired the champagne house.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFood suggestion \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe would recommend gathering with many great friends and simply enjoy it. To stop yourself falling over (as Emperor doesn't encourage consuming copious quantities of any alcohol without food), have a medley of dishes, cheese plate, smoked salmon blinis, steak tartare and seared scallops.
