Champagne Bollinger is helping one of Britain’s most loved film characters, James Bond, celebrate a big birthday this year. 2022 sees the James Bond film franchise turn 60 after bursting onto our cinema screen in 1962 with the eponymous Dr. No.
Champagne Bollinger has released the bold and vibrant 2007 vintage to mark this special occasion, which it feels embodies the enduring partnership between the Maison and 007
. This limited edition Cuvée, unveiled at the Sixty Years of James Bond Auction at Christie’s London, is inspired by Dr No’s 1962 iconic opening sequence, designed with a spectrum of colourful dots.
As a limited edition, only 25 jeroboams have been released, representing the 25 James Bond films that span the past 60 years. The wine for this prestige Cuvée has been hand-picked and vinified in wooden barrels before being aged in the Champagne Bollinger cellars for 14 years and then finally being riddled and disgorged by hand. The contrast between the intensity of the spicy aromas, the notes of fruit, brioche and honey, and the wine’s freshness make for a rare tasting experience.
Each £7,000 jeroboam, available from the Bollinger Burlington Bar, is presented in a special-edition Globe-Trotter case, numbered 001 to 025. Handmade in England with meticulous attention to detail, the 26-inch two-wheel trolley case features bold and striking Dr No-inspired artwork. The leather details on the case, such as the corners and the handles, are accentuated with the signature Bollinger red colourway. The red detail is also carried through onto the case, with a striking red rayon interior lining.
Each jeroboam is secured in the case with an easily removable precise cut-out to protect the bottle in transit. Once the bottle has been removed, you can carry Globe-Trotter’s stylish elegance with you wherever in the world you travel. Each case displays internal and external silver plaques with the Champagne Bollinger and 007 60th anniversary logos, finished with a luggage tag, making it a true collectors’ piece.
