(November 4, 2014) ... Today I am lucky enough to find myself at a drop in tasting at the King Edward Hotel in downtown Toronto for the iconic Champagne producer Bollinger ... the wine of choice of 007. I met with Guy de Rivoire, Commercial Director for Bollinger Champagne, who along with their agent Hanna & Sons, presented in a relaxed walk around style 3 different wines in the Bollinger line. I got a chance to sit down with Guy at the bar and discuss Champagne and Bollinger in particular.
First wine was the Bollinger Special Cuvee ... Click here to read the notes and info I gleaned.
(October 14, 2014) ... Somedays are better than others, and a day when you get to have a "Champagne Dinner" with Jean Baptiste Lecaillon, executive vice-president of production & chef de caves/winemaker of Louis Roederer, must count as one of those days. Read on as I take you inside to see what happens at one of these dinner.
