Town & Country is embracing the festive season with its latest online feature, “The Best Champagne For Your Holiday Celebrations.” The piece highlights Champagne Bollinger Special Cuvée in the story, adding “007 may be British, but his go-to bubbly is decidedly French. In addition to being the official champagne brand of James Bond, this bottle’s notes of red currant, creme brûlée, and subtle baking spice make it an ideal partner for seafood courses, cheese plates—even festive turkey dinner.” You can read the full story with writer Lauren Hubbard’s other recommendations here

Special Cuvée is a Champagne that defies category. Pinot Noir, the most demanding grape in the region, makes up at least 60 percent of the blend, giving structure, depth and signature red fruit. One-third is fermented in oak barrels, adding silkier texture and layered flavor. Reserve wines aged in magnums under cork for up to 15 years are hand disgorged into the blend, bringing richness and complexity. Aged much longer than most Champagnes, Special Cuvée offers freshness, savory nuance and velvety texture. It is a true expression of Bollinger’s devotion at every step.

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.
