Bollinger La Grande Année

Bollinger's prestige cuvée from exclusively Grand and Premier Cru sites – vinified in small used oak barrels, aged under natural cork for at least six years on the lees, hand-riddled and disgorged. This artisanal consistency is rare among Grandes Marques today.

In the glass: golden color, fine perlage. On the nose, cherry, quince, and bergamot, underscored by hazelnut, mirabelle, and an iodine-like mineral tone. On the palate, dense, creamy texture, balanced acidity, long salty finish with citrus and orchard fruit.

Serving temperature 8–10 °C. With aging potential in the cellar. Pairs with scallops with citrus butter, scampi ravioli, or grilled sea bass.
