An event for all Champagne lovers! Hosted at The Line Hotel in LA’s trendy Koreatown district, the walkaround Grand Champagne Tasting will offer guests an opportunity to taste and converse with the winemakers, owners, and brand ambassadors from more than 30 renowned Champagne houses. To top it all off, Champagne experts will give masterclasses focusing on the terroirs of Champagne.

Purchasers of Grand Champagne Tasting tickets are eligible to win pairs of Recioto Spumante Champagne glasses by Bottega del Vino.

During the Grand Champagne Tasting, three masterclasses will be offered to ticket holders on a first come, first serve basis at no additional cost, including:

1:00 PM - Krug Champagne. Winemaker Jérôme Jacoillot will explore a vertical tasting of six Krug Grande Cuvée Editions. Every year, the recreation of Krug Grande Cuvée represents a new edition of the founder’s vision, a vision that goes beyond the very notion of Vintage.

The following wines will be poured:

• Six consecutive editions of Krug Grande Cuvée: 161, 162, 163, 164, 165, 166


• Krug Vintage 2004

2:00 PM - Pinot Noir & Chardonnay featuring Bollinger and Ayala. In Champagne production, two grapes reign supreme: Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Champagne offers an incredible case study in the possibilities of these two classic varieties. At this seminar, we will explore the complementary contrasts of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in Champagne with two top houses. Join us for “A Study of Pinot Noir via Champagne Bollinger & A Study of Chardonnay via Champagne Ayala”!
