Bocage Champagne Bar Unveils New Menu

SARATOGA SPRINGS — Bocage Champagne Bar’s recently unveiled menu features 11 global sparklers; still wines from far-flung locales such as Lebanon, Albania, and Slovenia; large-format bottles; and 8 all-new cocktails.

The global sparklers are from France, Italy, the U.S., Slovenia, and Australia. “Each bottle was chosen for its quality and the story it tells about its region,” said Bocage co-owner Zac Denham in a news release. “Alongside them are six Champagnes, including two from our house producer, Champagne Drappier. One of those — Trop m’en Faut! — is particularly close to our hearts. Crafted entirely from Fromenteau (Pinot Gris), it’s a rarity in Champagne and isn’t available anywhere outside France. Drappier makes sure a little arrives here exclusively for Bocage. That wine is as rare and remarkable as Bocage itself — it’s a privilege to pour it for our guests.”

Bocage’s bottle-only list now spans more than 45 selections, including vintages dating back to 1978. “This list,” Denham said, “is about popping bottles, having fun, and discovering something unforgettable along the way.”
