Sparkling Wines

The body is brilliant, golden straw yellow in colour. The bubbles are fine. The mousse is discreet and persistent. The nose is very expressive and open, offering notes of fruit and brioche, as well as aromas of peach, white flowers (hawthorn, acacia) and vanilla pod. The attack in the mouth is lively and fresh, very harmonious. Fruit and honey flavours then follow, in a delicate expression....

The body, intense and sparkling, is bright pink in colour. The bubbles are fine. The mousse is persistent. The nose is broad and expressive, fresh and young at the same time and releases aromas of red fruits (freshly crushed wild raspberries, cherries, blackcurrants). In the mouth, a fine balance of velvety and full-bodied unfolds. The flavours recall fresh, crisp red fruits. ...

Harmonious wine, savory with good hints of bread crust, it must be served at a temperature of 7 ° C with first courses (risotto, fresh pasta) and well-made main courses.

"The 2013 Extra-Brut Clos des Goisses is fabulous. Readers will have to be patient, as the 2013 is in no mood to show all its cards. The late harvest produced a bristling, intensely saline Clos des Goisses that will require years to be at its best. Even so, its depth, textural resonance and finish are so evocative as to what the future holds. The 2013 is a positively stunning Champagne and...

Taste: lively attack thanks to a low dosage that respects the authenticity of the wine. You can feel the minerality of the chalk. Flavors of citrus, almond, toasted bread immediately impose themselves

Alta Langa Brut entered the battery only a few years ago. It is the bubble of the Langa, it follows a strict specification that determines a very high standard of quality. The vines grow above 500 metres above sea level and give the wine freshness and good acidity The very low residual sugar enhances elegance and finesse, character and persistence.

The Alta Langa Rosè is a bubble with a character all its own. The pinot noir, with light maceration of its skins, gives structure and slightly more complex aromas. The good acidity makes for pleasant drinking and one glass leads to another!

"The 2014 La Grande Année is stunning. In fact, it is one of the best recent editions I can remember tasting. What comes through most is the wine’s sizzling energy and tension, qualities that aren’t often associated with Bollinger, where the Champagnes tend to show more breadth and volume. In 2014, readers will find a Grande Année built on linear intensity and drive. The 2014 is a blend...

The nose is delicate and reveals itself with colourful touches. The green of eucalyptus, mint and vetiver. The yellow-orange of mirabelle, apricot and orange blossom. The brown of pepper, cardamom and liquorice stick. The silver of iodine and roasted aromas. The palate is elegant, clean and precise. The attack is enveloping and ethereal. Then, the fine, silky texture of the wine is...

A rich and complex bouquet revealing aromas of tart and candied fruits (lemon), citrus notes, where pollen (white flower), toasted hazelnut and Madagascar vanilla mingle. With aeration, the bouquet is enriched with sweet pastry and smoky notes from bottle ageing. Mouthfeel inviting, concentrated and chalky at the same time. The incredible tension and aromatic precision are perfectly...

The Vieilles Vignes Françaises are intimately linked to the history of Champagne Bollinger. Ungrafted, they carry a memory that has almost disappeared: an extraordinary and moving heritage memory, that of pre-phylloxera Champagne. Les Chaudes Terres and Clos St Jacques in Aÿ constitute the legendary plots of Vieilles Vignes Françaises of Maison Bollinger. For this vintage of Vieilles Vignes...
