Bollinger La Grande Annee 2018

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

"Bollinger’s 2018 La Grande Année is quite pretty and delicate. Floral and citrus notes are nicely lifted in a Grande Année that offers notable sensuality and grace. Hints of orchard fruit, chamomile, mint and chalk build through the mid-palate and into the taut, chiseled finish. There’s plenty of energy and focus. More importantly, this is a fine effort in a year marked by high yields in Champagne." - 96pts, Vinous
