New Champagne collection offers the colours of Asia



Champagne Pommery has officially unveiled its 2021 World Collection: Céleste. 

As today is World Champagne Day, and as many wine lovers are already looking at buying Christmas presents, the new collection is worthy of attention. 

After choosing artwork that saluted Australia, South America, Japan and Africa in previous years, Pommery has chosen Asia as its next destination. 

T
he Celeste collection features five limited-edition bespoke gift boxes. 

The custom-created artworks draw inspiration from traditional Asian design, featuring colours embellished with ornate gold and silver foil patterns. 

The five-wine range includes the much-vaunted Pommery Grand Cru Royal 2008 vintage. 

The 2008 was a great one in Champagne and Pommery Grand Cru Royal vintage is blended from seven grands crus and has excellent ageing potential.

Maison Pommery is renowned for creating the ‘brut' style of champagne in 1874 under the reins of Madame Pommery. 

The cuvées available in the Céleste range are  the Brut Royal NV, Brut Rosé NV, Brut Apanage NV, Apanage Blanc de Blancs NV and Grand Cru Vintage.

It is a tough job but I will be tasting them over the next few weeks and updating this blog with my notes. 

The 2021 Céleste limited-edition range will be exclusively available through Qantas Wine from the end of  October, followed by all major stockists from mid-November 2021.
