Mini Rose Brut by Nicholas Feuillatte Highly Recommended by the Champagne Wishes Panel of Whom You Know
One of the most festive thing you can do at a party is serve splits of champagne. It makes such a statement of luxury. I love seeing each of my guests holding their own bottles and sipping it out of a straw. The latest and greatest split out there is from Nicholas Feuillatte. They have the sexiest little 1/4 split filled with their delicious Rose Brut. Intense pink champagne complimented by a hot pink label. What a trip! And to top it off it comes with an adorable wrist strap in hot pink. The strap makes it the perfect accessory to any valentine outfit.
Nicolas Feuillatte is our new favorite champagne. We especially love the Rose Brut. We love it's beautiful pink color, and this time of year we of course can't help but think it is the perfect Valentine's Day treat! Mover and Shaker, Pascal Boyé, Director of North American Sales at Nicolas Feuillatte Champagne has the best job in the world, because this Champagne is just that good! We were so excited to know it is also available in 1/4 split bottles, perfect for anytime you need a glass or two of champagne. We love these little bottles so much we will be giving them out to all our Valentines this year. The taste and value can not be beat. You simply must go out and try a bottle today! We promise with Nicolas Feuillatte Champagne you will not be disappointed!
Just when you think you've seen it all, someone comes along with something so genius, you're completely blown away! In this case, the genius comes in the form of Nicolas Feuillatte's delightful One Fo(u)r Brut Rosé. This split of champagne is unlike any you've ever had before, I can assure you. In addition to being beautifully balanced and bursting with ripe berry flavor, this rosé is packaged so adorably that you may just want to keep a few bottles on hand to LOOK at! The cheerful pink beverage is housed in a personal-sized bottle with a hot pink label (an instant mood brightener, let me tell you!), and, if that wasn't cute enough, each bottle has its own hot pink wrist-tie. So, if you're at a party, you can hang your bottle from your wrist and leave your hands free for greeting friends and snatching up hors d'oeuvres. But the genius doesn't stop here - each bottle is topped with a screw-on cap, which allows you to close it between sips! This ensures that not a drop of the champagne will be spilled AND keeps the bubbles crisp and lively between sips! Voila - it's perfection...served in one adorable little bottle! With Valentine's Day rapidly approaching, now might be the perfect time to stock up on this perfect (and tasty) little pink treat!
When I saw this small bottle of Champagne Nicholas Feuillatte Rose, I couldn't get over how cute I thought it was. I had recently opened a larger bottle of this very champagne for a dinner party, so I knew I would like it. What I liked about this smaller version, was that there was just enough for the perfect size glass. I also had the idea to have these as parting gifts for my next get together. I also thought about having small buckets of ice with the small bottle chilling inside with the champagne flute next to each out for each of my guests as well. The ideas are endless. I can't wait to get planning on my next dinner party. Since this champagne has the hint of apples and berries, I think that might be my next theme.

For 35 years,
Nicolas Feuillatte has been creating more than a Champagne
Choosing Nicolas Feuillatte is also choosing a lifestyle and living it on a daily basis,
transforming audacity into something tangible, making the unconventional a rule of
thumb, and declaring celebration a simple pleasure or even a state of mind.
More than just a Champagne,35 years of inspiration !
Behind the brand is just one man: Nicolas Feuillatte, a devoted lover of Champagne. He was
looking for a Champagne that was different and in some way a reflection of his own personality,
that exuded his own hedonistic love of life.
Created in 1976, Champagne Nicolas Feuillatte has always stood out from the crowd. It is a
brand that is free to dare, re-invent and innovate, and that knows instinctively how to break free
from traditional Champagne convention, giving free rein to its creativity...
Nicolas Feuillatte,
The man who made Champagne
Into a lifestyle
Born 29th January, 1926 in Paris, Nicolas Feuillatte’s future seemed
all mapped out.
Yet very soon, his adventurous spirit gets the better of him and he
leaves his family of well-established negociants, to try his fate in the
USA.
Quite apart from the incredibly daring risk he takes, which turns out
to be a stroke of luck, it is his ingenious communication skills to
which he owes his fortune. Driven by an all-consuming passion for
life and an insatiable taste for partying, he soon gained a reputation
on the New York circuit for his excellence in throwing fabulous parties
in his apartment.
At just 40 years old, this inventive and passionate man has not only
created a fortune, but also a name: he has built up an image of
elegance, audacity and inspiration, and he is now ready for his next
adventure! It was his brother who suggested he should fi nance the
purchase of a vineyard.
“A devotee of Champagne and just back from a whirlwind existence travelling around the world,
nothing could have seemed more idyllic at the time than devoting myself to this new “very French”
adventure.” So together in 1976, they create their own Champagne. They want to create an elegant
cuvée, marketed under an original label, bearing the Nicolas Feuillatte signature. Two years on,
the “Réserve Particulière” is born. Inspired by his anti-conformist outlook and “man of the world”
persona, this Champagne is targeted at his American circle of friends and amongst them, Jackie
Onassis, Shirley Mac Laine, Sophia Loren and Lauren Bacall. The quality of the wines makes them
an immediate success, and Champagne Nicolas Feuillatte is launched.
In 1985, he approaches the local cooperative, the “Centre Vinicole de la Champagne” as a potential
Champagne supply source. From this point forward, the cooperative is responsible for handling the
production of between 4-500,000 bottles, of which more than 40% are destined for export. Just a
year later, keen to build longevity for his company, Nicolas Feuillatte makes the decision to relinquish
the rights to the brandname to the Centre Vinicole de Champagne, who offi cially become its owner
on March 6th 1986. From now on, Nicolas Feuillatte is responsible for external relations, assuring the
successful distribution of the brand in France and abroad, and becomes international ambassador
for the brand.
In just 25 years, the number of bottles of Nicolas Feuillatte Champagne sold has multiplied 20-fold,
reaching a staggering 8 million bottles in 2010.
More than just a Champagne, 35 years of commitment
Commitment to the future: from the very outset, Nicolas Feuillatte has drawn inspiration from the
traditional savoir-faire of the Champagne growers, which the brand works tirelessly to safeguard and
promote in order to ensure its continued and future existence.
The Centre Vinicole – Champagne Nicolas Feuillatte is the n° 1 co-operative union in Champagne,
boasting more than 5,000 growers. These growers work rigorously to cultivate the vines and optimise
their potential. As a result, Champagne Nicolas Feuillatte has at its disposal a supply source that
refl ects the diversity of the Champagne appellation, with extremely high quality standards.
More than just a Champagne, 35 years of passion
One of Champagne Nicolas Feuillatte’s secrets of success is undoubtedly the men behind the brand,
who have remained true to its values, to a passion and a lifestyle. Their overriding intention is to share
and communicate this state of mind.
Each year, resident Cellar Master Jean Pierre Vincent, using at his disposal an unparalleled supply of
Champagne, creates the blend which best expresses the house style; a style that is unique, cheeky
and spontaneous.
Jean-Pierre Vincent is the man responsible, for transforming a style into a Champagne,
35 years ago.
His background is inextricably linked to that of the Centre Vinicole – Champagne Nicolas
Feuillatte. When he joined the Centre in 1976, there was a need to create a range of
Champagnes and he surpasses the act of mere creation. Instead, he breathes life into a
range of original Champagnes that are adored by today’s lifestyle lovers. Coming from a
school of oenologists who believe it is not enough to limit oneself to crafting the wine, and
who long to control the entire grape process from A to Z, Jean-Pierre Vincent makes his mark…
A tireless grape-picker, he never ceases to imagine, innovate and
shock in order to create the wine that he loves. The Champagne
he crafts is well-balanced with delicate bubbles, and is round and
refreshing on the palate. The wine’s aromatic expression is a true
refl ection of its personality and terroir; a complex, yet incredibly light
wine.
To get this far, two distinct advantages have played a vital role in his
success: fi rstly, his fl awless mastery of his craft and secondly, the
complete palette of crus from across the entire Champagne region
from which he can select his wines.
And in 2011, the Cellar Master at the Centre Vinicole – Champagne
Nicolas Feuillatte has sourced an incredible reserve of wines that
very few other brands could rival; namely 13 of the 17 Grands Crus,
33 of the 42 Premiers Crus and more than 200 Crus from the 321
within the Champagne appellation.
More than just a Champagne, 35 years of creation
Each year, a number of artists play an important role in building the unique and slightly quirky
personality of the brand. Created far from traditional Champagne convention, the Nicolas
Feuillatte brand nurtures this point of difference by inviting artists and designers to enrich the
brand identity.
Each year, since 1999, Nicolas Feuillatte appoints an “artist of the year”, who feeds in to the
creative concept of the brand by creating an exclusive and original work of art.
This year Nicolas Feuillatte has combined forces with the contemporary photographer and
creative illusionist Julien Taylor, who coincidentally is also celebrating his 35th birthday this year.
Scientifically trained and an expert in photomontage, Julien Taylor captures the impossible in his
photography: time and movement. Appealing to the purely fun side of his audience, he transports
us into a magical theatre where space is constructed and deconstructed in a kaleidoscopic
vision.
Nicolas Feuillatte has always attached great importance to the visual presentation of its wines
and their associated brand imagery and works with renowned designers and stylists, such
as Christian Ghion, Hervé Van Der Straeten, Corinne Cobson and Stella Cadente, to design a
collection of original gift packaging and promotional gift ideas.
The fusion of an inspirational lifestyle and traditional savoir-faire, for 35 years now, Nicolas Feuillatte has been the ultimate brand epitomising creativity and conviviality.
The metal gift canister
A collectable luxury gift canister
To make those “Champagne moments” truly
unforgettable, a metal gift canister proudly bearing the
Nicolas Feuillatte 35th anniversary colors, will delight
Champagne collectors and connoisseurs alike.
Original and strikingly bold, the luxury tin is decorated
with an elegant, on-trend multistripe design. Once
again, the brand asserts its difference; a difference
that has always been celebrated, as it pushes the
boundaries to seek inspiration beyond traditional
codes and convention.
The Limited Edition canister also serves as a reminder
that Nicolas Feuillatte’s creativity is expressed just as
well through its packaging as through its Champagne
- because Champagne and “Champagne moments”
go hand in hand, moments of sheer sophistication and
art de vivre.
