This Christmas, if you’re looking for special gift to someone important in your life, consider a bottle of Bordeaux vintage wine in the year he or she was born.  Each bottle is a piece of history and just gets rarer with each passing day, as it is impossible to go back in time to recreate the same bottle of wine.

Weather you love French vintage wines and would like to discover a wine that suites your taste or find that special bottle to mark an important occasion, or you don’t know the first thing about vintage wine, we have the  solution for you. Bacchus & Century is Hong Kong’s first luxury wine boutique with a collection of over 3,000 bottles of wine in their cellar.  Eric Liu, the shop’s “guardian,” is an expert in French vintage wine specifically from 1900 to 2000 (yes a whole century, hence the name).  A consultation with Bacchus & Century will ensure you find the perfect bottle of wine, whether it’s an iconic bottle from the most prestigious ‘maisons,’ or a vintage bottle that suits the occasion and recipient’s taste.

To mark the occasion of their opening, Bacchus & Century would like to invite you to visit their store and take them up their complimentary bottle of 1975 French vintage Bordeaux (*Conditions apply) for any purchase of 2 bottles of wine.

Winelife Asia is a new wine distributor in Hong Kong and to introduce themselves to Winebuzz.hk readers they have provided us with a special offer on bottles of Louis Roederer Cristal Brut Champagne 2002:

• Varietal: Pinot Noir/Chardonnay
• Region: France
• Body: Full-Bodied
• Sweetness: Dry
• Alcohol: 12.0 %

Cristal tastes best served with the finest delicacies like caviar, cooked oysters, scallops or lobster.

“Cristal” vintage champagne is the jewel of the House of Louis Roederer, it was a “prestige cuvee” created in 1876 for Tsar Alexander II. Its great depth of favor resulted from a perfect balanced of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes grown in the House’s best vineyards.

It has to be mature on lees for six years to develop its golden appearance with lightly burnished reflections and its intense bouquet of white flowers, citrus and red fruits, followed by toasted, woody aromas that are warmer and more mature.  Tasting a Louis Roederer’s champagne, brings with it all the emotion of the work of art.

If interested please send an email with the subject line: “Winebuzz Cristal Offer” with your details and they will contact you for delivery information. You can also call Winelife Asia on (852) 8100-6327.

UPDATE JULY 10: This promotion has now ended.
