UAE | Emirates has launched its prestigious inflight range of world-class Champagne brands, known as the 'Exclusive Eight'.
Emirates customers will now have the privilege of tasting its exclusive eight, the world’s most outstanding champagne onboard and in lounges as Emirates renews its global airline exclusivity agreements for another four years – serving the most impressive expressions of Moët & Chandon, Veuve Clicquot and Dom Pérignon.
Celebrated as the most valuable airline offering in history, Emirates is the only commercial airline globally able to offer its customers exclusivity in the skies on eight remarkable champagnes, due to its longstanding partnership of 32 years with LVMH - Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton. As part of the ‘fly better’ promise, Emirates purchases more champagne than any other airline in the world.
Emirates exclusive eight champagnes in the sky are Dom Pérignon Vintage 2013, Dom Pérignon Vintage Rosé 2008, Dom Pérignon Plénitude 2 2004, Moët & Chandon Brut Imperial, Moët & Chandon Imperial Rosé, Moët & Chandon Grand Vintage Blanc 2013, Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label and Veuve Clicquot Vintage Blanc 2015. Emirates also serves Australian sparkling wine, Chandon Vintage Brut 2017, onboard as a global exclusive to customers in Premium Economy.
Onboard Emirates, Dom Pérignon is served in First Class across all global routes. First Class customers enjoying their flight will be served Dom Pérignon Vintage 2013 throughout the year and Dom Pérignon Vintage Rosé 2008 from June to September – a breathtakingly bold assemblage created with pinot noir grapes that offers a bouquet of raspberries, wild strawberries, iris and violet followed by greener nuances of privet, angelica and camphor tree. The result is full-bodied and silky, with an acidic foundation and finish redolent of peonies and white pepper.
First Class customers travelling throughout November and December 2024 will have the incredible opportunity to savour Dom Pérignon Plénitude 2 2004. The exceptionally rare 2004 vintage in its second plénitude is a limited release, forming part of Emirates' award-winning portfolio of the exclusive eight matured wines and champagne. Presenting an affirmed and precise minerality, the second plénitude of this excellent vintage offers citrusy notes of pink grapefruit and blood oranges, that gently cede to figs. Its’ 20 years on the lees elevates the minerality with the sublime maturity that is Dom Pérignon’s signature, featuring rich notes of cocoa, mocha, roasted nuts, brioche, honey, and licorice.
Celebrating every special moment in the sky, Emirates customers have enjoyed Moët Hennessy Champagnes onboard for over 30 years. For the last 16 years, Emirates has invested more than USD one billion into its wine program, buying exceptional wines and champagnes at the earliest opportunity, to mature and express their full potential before serving them on board.
