Descrizione

Lo Champagne AOC Special Cuvée di Bollinger rappresenta l'essenza dell’eleganza e della tradizione della celebre maison francese. Questo champagne è un blend sapientemente bilanciato, nato dall'unione di circa 60% Pinot Noir, 25% Chardonnay e 15% Pinot Meunier, provenienti dai migliori vigneti della regione della Champagne. La fermentazione avviene in legno, una pratica che conferisce al vino una struttura complessa e un carattere distintivo.

Alla vista, la Special Cuvée si presenta con un colore dorato brillante, arricchito da un perlage fine e persistente. Al naso, si apre con un bouquet ricco e complesso di aromi di frutta matura, come mele cotogne e pere, con note sottili di spezie e vaniglia, derivanti dall'affinamento in legno. Sul palato, questo champagne offre una freschezza vivace, accompagnata da una texture cremosa e una mineralità ben bilanciata. Il finale è lungo, caratterizzato da una piacevole nota tostata e un retrogusto delicato di agrumi.

La Special Cuvée di Bollinger è perfetta da gustare in occasione di celebrazioni speciali o come accompagnamento a piatti raffinati come ostriche, frutti di mare, o formaggi a pasta molle. La bottiglia da 375ml è ideale per piccoli brindisi, assicurando sempre un'eccellente qualità e un gusto sofisticato che rappresenta l’arte dello champagne.

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.
