Blend of the 2007 vintage: 70% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay. 14 crus: mainly Aÿ and Verzenay for the Pinot Noir and Avize, Cramant and Oger for the Chardonnay - 91% Grands crus and 9% Premiers crus. Exclusive use of the cuvee. Fermented entirely in barrels
To the eye: The delicate colour and golden hues are a sign of the wine’s maturity and Bollinger’s wine-making methods. To the nose: A first impression of fresh almonds, then yellow-flesh fruit aromas evoking peach and mango; toasted, roasted notes accompanied with dried citrus and pink grapefruit. On the palate: A lovely aromatic fullness with honey flavours and a smooth chalky texture; candied lemon notes and a delicious bitterness, a wonderfully refreshing finish.
