A precise and fruity nose with a slight scent of sea-air. Aromas of cherry and lemon mingle with quince and bergamot. Then notes of hazelnut and almond, peach and Mirabelle plum complete this wine's range of aromas.

The Luxury of Time

Champagne Bollinger stands proudly as one of the most iconic and respected family-owned houses in all of Champagne. Founded in Aÿ, Bollinger has built a legacy around powerful, expressive Pinot Noir and an unwavering commitment to traditional winemaking methods. The house is renowned for fermenting all their wines in oak barrels—a practice they have never abandoned—and today they maintain their own in-house cooper, managing a remarkable stock of over 3,500 barrels. With approximately one million bottles fermented in barrel each year, Bollinger’s devotion to craftsmanship is unparalleled, matched only by a handful of producers like Krug. Every bottle speaks to generations of expertise, excellence, and an unrelenting pursuit of quality.

Technical Notes

Blend of the 2015 vintage: 60% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay.
19 crus: mainly Aÿ and Verzenay for the Pinot Noir, Chouilly and Oiry for the Chardonnay. Exclusive use of the cuvée. Fermented entirely in aged oak barrels.

At Bollinger, only very high quality harvests become a vintage: the exceptional 2015 vintage gave rise to a wine that is simultaneously structured, rich and complex, in terms of both its minerality and exceptional intensity.

Maturation: Sealed with a natural cork and cellar aged for more than twice the time required by the Appellation. Dosage: Moderate, 8 grams per litre.
