Bollinger’s prestige cuvée is the vintage-dated La Grande Année, made of roughly two-thirds Pinot Noir and one-third Chardonnay. It is produced only when the harvest reaches a perfect balance. This wine ferments entirely in oak barrels, and undergoes its second fermentation under cork instead of crown capsule. It’s filled with aromas of honey, gingerbread and cinnamon, and offers a core of pastry and candied orange flavors on the palate. This prestige cuvée made its silver screen debut in 1978, in James Bond’s Casino Royale
Winemaker Notes
Bollinger Champagne
by Gilles Descôtes
At Bollinger, only very high quality harvests become a La Grande Année vintage: The year 2007 was an exceptional one, revealing a very refreshing Champagne that brings out the full impact of the fruit. The 2007 vintage has a slightly higher amount of Pinot Noir (70% versus ~65% typically) than usual, with Chardonnay rounding out the rest of the blend (30%). This vintage has yielded a wine with a great aromatic ripeness
