Bollinger La Grande Annee 2015

Champagne Bollinger is one of the most famous houses in Champagne. It is notable for its muscular, Pinot Noir-dominant cuvée.  La Grand Année Brut and Rosé, as well as prestige cuvées, RD and Vielles Vignes Francaises are their most desired wines.

Review

"The 2015 Brut La Grande Année was disgorged last year with eight grams per liter dosage. The wine has turned out beautifully, exhibiting a more muscular, old-school Bollinger profile in contrast to the unusually racy, fine-boned 2014 that preceded it. Wafting from the glass with notes of pear, orange oil and white flowers mingled with notions of mocha, toasted hazelnuts and fino sherry, it's medium to full-bodied, layered and textural, with a dense core of fruit framed by chalky structuring extract, concluding with a long, sapid finish." - 95+pts, Wine Advocate
