Description

La Special Cuvée di Bollinger è una delle espressioni più iconiche della prestigiosa maison di Champagne. Questo Champagne AOC rappresenta l'essenza stessa del savoir-faire di Bollinger, ottenuto da una selezione meticolosa di uve Pinot Noir, Chardonnay e Pinot Meunier provenienti dai migliori cru della regione.

Al naso, questo Champagne si apre con un bouquet complesso e raffinato, dove le note di mela cotogna, agrumi canditi e nocciole tostate si fondono armoniosamente con sentori di fiori bianchi e spezie dolci. In bocca, la "Special Cuvée" offre un equilibrio perfetto tra freschezza e rotondità, con una struttura piena e cremosa che viene esaltata da una vivace effervescenza.

Il finale è lungo e persistente, con una mineralità accattivante che invita a un altro sorso. Perfetto da gustare da solo come aperitivo, si accompagna splendidamente anche a piatti di alta cucina come frutti di mare, pesce affumicato e foie gras. Con il suo elegante astuccio, questo Champagne è ideale per celebrare momenti speciali o come regalo di classe.

La vinificazione artigianale, che prevede una lunga maturazione sui lieviti per almeno tre anni, conferisce a questo Champagne una complessità e una profondità uniche, rendendolo una scelta eccellente per gli amanti delle bollicine di alta qualità.

Winery history

Founded in 1829 in Aÿ, the Maison has remained in the same family for generations and has gained international renown, largely thanks to the stewardship of figures such as Élisabeth "Lily" Bollinger. Over the years Bollinger has gradually expanded its vineyards and cellars, preserving traditional practices and a strong identity rooted in family continuity and quality.

Production philosophy

Bollinger's style is based on emphasizing fruit expression, with a strong focus on Pinot Noir, extended lees aging, the use of reserve wines kept in magnums and winemaking in wooden barrels: principles intended to build complexity, structure and longevity.

Terroir and vineyards

The Maison farms vineyards in the heart of Champagne: areas such as Aÿ, Montagne de Reims, Côte des Blancs and Vallée de la Marne. Among the most celebrated parcels are the ungrafted clos, which supply the grapes for the cuvée Vieilles Vignes Françaises.

Awards and recognitions

It holds historic accolades, including a Royal Warrant awarded in the 19th century, and enjoys a wide international reputation for the quality of its cuvées.
