Our oenologists' opinion

Well-rounded

Lemon yellow colour with some golden highlights. Lovely bouquet of dried fruit, toast, hints of almond paste, hints of kernels, kirsch. Nice balance on a full-bodied, vinous champagne, the bubbles are quite creamy and melted. Beautiful frank finish, tense with aromas of tarte tatin and roasting. Ideal with a meal.

Features

Body ? The body is the way a wine feels inside the mouth. Several factors, such as the alcohol content and the presence of tannins, contribute to the feel of the wine.

Freshness ? The freshness of a wine is defined by its level of acidity. Unlike rounded wines, fresh wines are easy to drink, and are more lively. Acidity plays a necessary part in a wine's structure.

Aging ? All wines do not have the same aging potential. Some are supposed to be consumed at a young age while others must be kept for longer periods of time.

Official supplier to the English Court since 1884, the House of Bollinger also counts among its most distinguished clients the most famous secret agent.

Domain and appellation

  • Bollinger

    Founded in 1829, the prestigious House of Bollinger was born from the association of three men: Athanase Louis Emmanuel Hennequin - Count of Villermont, Jacques Joseph Bollinger and Paul Renaudin. The name "Special Cuvée" of the House of Bollinger has existed since 1911.  The date "1846" refers to the design of the bottle. Indeed, the bottle is characterised by a wider base and a thinner neck, typical of the 1840s.


        Terroir: Situated in Aÿ, the converging point of the 3 regions of the Champagne terroir (the Montagne de Reims, the Vallée de la Marne and the Côte des Blancs), this 160-hectare estate lies on clay-limestone and chalk gravel soils.
        Viticulture: The vineyard covers two thirds of its grape needs. Environmentally conscious, Bollinger was the first company to obtain the new "Viticulture Durable en Champagne" certification in 2014.
        Vinification: the Spécial Cuvée is lightly dosed and aged in the cellar for a minimum of 3 years. This ageing, much longer than required by the rules of the Appellation, allows the aromas to develop perfectly.
