Book Champagne: Impossible collection by Assouline

Description

For pure magic, champagne has no equal. It is the very emblem of refinement, celebration, and uninhibited pleasure. One of the most protected wine appellations in the world, it promotes the French art of living and contributes to its notoriety and prestige around the world. Since champagne was imagined at the start of the 18th century, the region's visionary producers have moved ahead to open new markets and develop local terroirs.

How did the “devil’s wine” that pops from the cork become the blessed nectar of the gods? Whether made by independent winemakers who grow grapes on their own land or produced by legendary houses, Champagne remains an international success that shines in a category of its own, beyond all other sparkling wines on Earth.

From exceptional vintages to an array of more recent releases, this exclusive selection curated by World's Best Sommelier Enrico Bernardo spans three centuries and is illustrated with diverse tasting experiences, insightful advice and unique anecdotes. It highlights the most remarkable bottles ever produced, all united by the impossibility of ever having them together in one cellar at once, hence the title of this volume. Presented in a wooden box, this edition is hand-bound and luxuriously crafted with hand-tipped labels, making it a must-have for all champagne lovers.

Exclusive white gloves and canvas tote bag are included with every purchase of an Ultimate Collection book.
