Amorim Group, the world's largest supplier of softwoods, designed a new stopper for the 200-year-old champagne that was harvested from the Baltic Sea to better preserve the wine.
This batch of champagne came from the ancient shipwreck of the Aland Islands. It was discovered by several divers in early July this year. The local government spent 85,000 euros, and eventually recovered 168 bottles of champagne and 4 bottles of beer. It has been confirmed that these champagnes are part of France’s famous Veuve Clicquot, which is partly brewed by the now-defunct French Djurlaer.
Amorim's Champagne technology team worked together with the experts of Veuve Champagne to develop a complex solution for changing corks. In addition, the group also provided a unique artificial bottle sealing device, which was completed near the sinking site to minimize the impact on the quality of champagne.
