CHAMPAGNE BOLLINGER SPECIAL CUVÉE NV

B ollinger is an icon in Champagne, all the more remarkable because its reputation rests entirely on the quality of its extraordinarily distinct Champagnes. Very simply, Bollinger is the outlier. The rigorous, obsessive attention to detail and preservation of artisanal, almost absurdly labor-intensive practices, makes Bollinger both a guardian of the past and, as we see with each passing year, the beacon of the future. From vineyard to bottling, Special Cuvée sees such an extraordinary level of care and attention, it is difficult to place within the non- vintage or, really, any Champagne category. It is a Champagne that stands apart. Within one bottle, all the complexity of flavor, texture and pleasure that Champagne can offer. Special Cuvée is truly a journey of devotion from Bollinger. “One experiences many sensations with Special Cuvée. On the nose, it offers beautiful complexity; ripe fruit and spicy aromas, with hints of roasted apples, apple compote and peaches. Then, on the palate, it has a subtle combination of structure, length and vivacity; bubbles like velvet with aromas of pear, brioche and spicy aromas, along with notes of fresh walnut.” – CELLARMASTER GILLES DESCOTES

“The complexity and richness of Special Cuvée is unparalleled among the entry non-vintage blends of every Champagne house."
