Emirates raises a glass to top champagnes
Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label is one of the champagnes served in Business Class
Emirates has confirmed it has global airline exclusive agreements in place until 2024 to serve Moët & Chandon, Veuve Clicquot and Dom Pérignon onboard.
On Emirates, Dom Pérignon is served in First Class across all global routes, Veuve Clicquot is served in Business Class on routes to the Americas, UK, and Europe, and Moët & Chandon is served in Business Class on routes to Africa, Middle East, and Asia Pacific including Australasia. Economy Class passengers can also purchase Moët & Chandon onboard.
Emirates purchases more champagne than any other airline in the world and has served Dom Pérignon and Moët Hennessy Champagnes onboard for over 30 years. Over the last 16 years, the airline has invested more than US$1 billion into its wine program, buying wines and champagnes at the earliest opportunity, to let some of the wines mature allowing them to express their full potential before serving them on board.
According to the airline, each champagne is presented by highly trained cabin crew, at the perfect temperature, in a unique champagne glass.
Passengers can also enjoy champagne in Emirates Lounges. In Dubai, the Emirates Business Class Lounge in Concourse B has a unique Moët & Chandon Champagne Lounge, where iconic cuvée is matched with canapés, created by Michelin-starred chefs. Passengers can learn more about the process of making champagne and the Emirates collection on the Emirates Wine Channel or speak to Emirates cabin crew who are provided with food pairing and technical notes for each champagne.
