Descrizione

Lo Champagne AOC - Special Cuvée - Mathusalem - Bollinger è un'eccellenza enologica prodotta da una delle maison più rinomate della regione della Champagne, Bollinger. Questa cuvée è una celebrazione dell'arte della spumantizzazione e del terroir unico di questa regione francese.

La Special Cuvée si presenta in formato Mathusalem (6 litri), un contenitore dalle dimensioni imponenti che non solo cattura lo sguardo ma permette anche una maturazione ottimale del vino, esaltandone le caratteristiche organolettiche. Alla vista, il vino appare con un perlage fine e persistente, indice di una qualità elevata.

Il bouquet aromatico è complesso ed avvolgente, caratterizzato da note di mela verde, agrumi canditi e un leggero sentore di fiori bianchi, il tutto accompagnato da delicate fragranze di brioche e mandorle tostate, tipiche del lungo affinamento sui lieviti. Al palato, offre una struttura cremosa e ben bilanciata, con una piacevole mineralità e la freschezza che valorizza la profondità dei sapori.

Questo champagne è perfetto per le occasioni speciali e celebrazioni, grazie alla sua eleganza intrinseca e la persistenza gustativa che lo rendono versatile negli abbinamenti gastronomici. Ideale in accompagnamento a ostriche, frutti di mare, caviale o anche pietanze più complesse come il foie gras. Bollinger, con la sua Special Cuvée, conferma ancora una volta la sua capacità di creare champagne di altissimo livello che esprimono armonia e raffinatezza.

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.
