What to Expect

Champagne is specifically a sparkling wine made in the Champagne region of France; every other sparkling is simply that, sparkling wine. Made to be aged for a few to many years, in many languages "Champagne" is synonymous with "party". When young, Champagne exhibits the fresh fruit tones of its "cepage", or blend. Usually based on a blend the features either Chardonnay or Pinot Noir as its main ingredient, Champagne's fruit can range from citrusy to orchard fruits and even red berries. The wine gains distinct yeasty notes from its secondary fermentation, the one that adds the fizz, which is typically described as recalling brioche or bread. As it ages Champagne tends to lose its obvious fruit, which is replaced by subtle nutty tones and subdued elements of dried fruits.

Winemakers Notes

A blend par excellence; Special Cuvée is the purest expression of Bollinger'shouse style. Its biscuity nose is endowed with hints of white fruit and therich, full-bodied palate is perfectly balanced by fresh acidity and a soft,delicate mousse. A stylish Champagne that is ideal to drink now or in the nexttwo or three years.

Exudes honey, with richness and a supple texture. Peach, biscuit and dried orange peel notes add complexity, and the wine glides to a long, lingering aftertaste of honey and brioche. Drink now through 2012. 25,000 cases imported. -BS Wine Spectator. A Champagne Blend wine from Champagne in France. N.V. Bollinger Special Cuvee 750ml

Bollinger's entire know-how is revealed in its ability to recreate a blend that is consistant, year after year, in style and quality, and to recompose this bouquet of aromas, this unique combination of body, balance, vinosity and finesse. It is on this wine that the House bases its difference, maked its qualitative choices and means to be judged. The first fermentation of the wines takes place in small stainless steel vats or oak casks. Some thirty crus from the Marne deparmentement go into it's composition, including a large proportion (80% minimum) of Grands crus and Premiers crus. read more...

The grapes mainly come from grands crus and premiers crus in Champagne Two third of the grapes comes from Bollinger's own vineyards which guarantee consistency in the quality of its wines.
30 crus of the Departement of the Marne have a part in the composition of the Blends, 80% of the grapes coming from grands crus and premiers crus of the Montagne de Reims and of the Côte des Blancs.
