The most expensive champagne in the world

In the northeast of France lies the picturesque Champagne region. This is a land flowing with milk, honey, and champagne. Anyone who delights in luxurious, world-class champagnes knows it well. It was here, in Champagne—specifically in Chamery—that the world’s most expensive champagne was produced. The top spot among the priciest sparkling wines belongs to a bottle that hasn’t spent decades aging, wasn’t owned by a famous family, nor did it earn its fame through any historic event. On the contrary, behind the most expensive bottle stands a young brand that has managed to blend generations of family winemaking tradition with modern business, cutting-edge technology, and new investment opportunities.

Premium cru champagne is a luxury adored by the rich and famous, and no birthday or special celebration is complete without it.

Sparkling wine for 2.5 million dollars

For many investors, premium spirits represent an opportunity to invest in unique bottles filled with champagne, vodka, or other liquors. The advantage of this type of investment is the relative certainty that the value of the spirit will increase, and it is resistant to inflation and stock market crashes. Perhaps that’s why the buyers of the world’s most expensive champagne, a pair of Italian brothers, announced that they will not open the bottle of sparkling wine.

In 2022, two brothers, Piero and Giovani Buono, purchased a bottle of champagne for $2.5 million at the NYC.NFT auction. The buyers work in the technology and fashion industries and invest in cryptocurrencies.

Chateau Avenue Foch 2017 – the world’s most expensive champagne

The world’s most expensive sparkling wine—at least for now—was produced by a young brand. However, its owners have masterfully combined a family tradition of champagne making with blockheim technology. They sensed the market perfectly, and very young wine made headlines in the world’s most popular newspapers, making their vineyard famous.

Chateau Avenue Foch from 2017 is a one-of-a-kind, unique bottle in the world. Adorned with Swarovski crystal diamonds. However, it wasn’t the precious stones that determined the final price of the bottle, but the NFT. A unique work in the form of a Bored Ape Mutant, essentially an image of a bored ape, played a key role in the final price at which the sparkling drink was sold.

Champagne was created with investors in mind. Its creators, Shammi Shinh and the artist known as Mig, designed the bottle to be a masterpiece. A collectible luxury, a unique item, and an object of desire.

Champagne from a luxury vineyard

The vineyard that produces the world’s most expensive champagne is located on a family estate in Chamery. The vineyard takes pride in its traditional winemaking methods. To transform grapes into premium champagne, the winery uses presses that have been in the family for generations.

The motto of this young French wine brand is to adapt to the rhythm of nature in the production of their wines. Their work follows the laws of nature.

On the other hand, they create limited edition wines. They draw inspiration from art and modernity. They combine the exquisite, unique taste of ripe grapes with the beauty of contemporary art.

What are NFTs and why are investors eager to spend money on them?

NFT stands for non-fungible token. Simply put, it means a unique, non-interchangeable token. It was this very concept that caused the price of the 2017 Chateau Avenue Foch champagne to skyrocket and brought massive popularity to the vineyard.

NFT is characterized by its uniqueness—there is only one original piece. Of course, counterfeits may appear, but they will never be the original. This is what sets it apart from cryptocurrencies, which can be exchanged and where BTC has a defined value. An NFT is a digital product without a fixed value. Its worth depends on how much someone is willing to pay for the piece.

In short, NFT is something unique, something no one else has or ever will have. This fits perfectly with the luxury of owning something one-of-a-kind. The combination of NFT and wine has created a perfect duo, as both are investments.

The vineyard from Chamer creates unique, custom-made projects. So, if you have ‘some’ cash to spare, you can order a sparkling drink from them that no one else will have.
