2002 Bollinger La Grande Année Brut Champagne
£139.00
“Stunning. Rich mid palate and dry finish with wonderful depth of flavour and texture and still seriously refreshing.”
19.5/20 Jancis Robinson MW (tasted Aug 2024)
“60% Pinot Noir, selected from grand crus on the north and south side of the Montagne de Reims, blended with 40% Chardonnay from Cuis and elsewhere on the Côte des Blancs. After fermentation in cask and ageing under cork, the wine was disgorged with a dosage of roughly 8g/L. Today it is opening up, with notes of ripe apple, brioche, and a touch of caramel. The texture is velvety and lush, and the wine seems hedonistically ready to drink, although it should continue to hold for some time to come.”
