World's Three Most Expensive Champagnes

Champagnes are widely enjoyed all around the world. But can we afford the most expensive ones?

Champagne comes in different sized bottles and of varying prices. But there are the extreme ones, which are the world's most expensive ones.

LOUIS ROEDERER, CRISTAL BRUT 1990

Price: $ 17,625

An unidentified seller really made money at an auction in December 2005, when he sold a bottle of this champagne at an auction. Ever since, the brand has gained great popularity and is now a world-wide highly recognized brand. The enormous gold-labeled bottle stores 6 liters of the most expensive champagne in the world.

KRUG, CLOS DU MESNIL 1995

Price: $ 750

Talking about luxury champagne, the Krug Mesnil really beats the rest. It is made from grapes from just one small vineyard of 4.5 acres. This champagne is quite rare as in the 1995 vintage, only 12,624 bottles of it were produced. For a champagne so “young” in age, its recent releases are soft, delicate and easily accessible.

BOLLIGNER BLANC DE NOIRS VIEILLES VIGNES FRANCAISES 1997

Price: $ 400

Blanc de noire is the rarest of all campaigns due to its special ingredient: Pinot Noir grape. This champagne with amazing fuzz is composed entirely of the Pinot Noir grape, a special grape of tiny size that is grown only in a limited number of vines in France. Even in vintage years, only 40 bottles of this extraordinary champagne make it to the U.S.
