Description

The Spécial Cuvée Bollinger is an iconic champagne. Made primarily from Pinot Noir, it stands out for its aromatic richness and beautiful complexity. This bottle is suitable for both an aperitif and for accompanying gastronomic dishes.

The Making of Spécial Cuvée Bollinger

The Spécial Cuvée champagne is made from a blend of 60% Pinot Noir, 25% Chardonnay, and 15% Meunier. More than 85% of the grapes used come from Grands and Premiers crus, ensuring quality. Only the cuvée, the first press, is used in the making of this champagne, guaranteeing its purity and unique character.

The Spécial Cuvée benefits from cellar aging of nearly 3 years, more than twice the duration required by the Champagne appellation. This long rest in the cellar allows the wine to develop all its complexity and depth. The blend includes a significant portion of reserve wines, some of which have been aged in magnums for 7 to 15 years. The dosage is moderate, with 6 to 7 grams per liter, ensuring a perfect balance between freshness and structure.
