Bollinger’s Champagne Brut PN TX20 is a unique cuvée, part of the PN collection, dedicated to the pure expression of Pinot Noir in the Maison’s signature style. This vintage highlights the Tauxières (TX) cru, the heart of the blend, complemented by grapes from other selected terroirs in the Montagne de Reims. Pinot Noir takes centre stage, with a small percentage of reserve wines, some of which are aged in magnums, to ensure depth and stylistic consistency. Vinification takes place partly in small oak barrels, in keeping with Bollinger tradition, and the second fermentation follows the Méthode Champenoise, with extended ageing on the lees. The Brut dosage is calibrated to enhance precision, structure and terroir identity.
Visually, it is a brilliant golden yellow colour, with a fine, persistent perlage. On the nose, it is intense and complex, with aromas of white and yellow-fleshed fruit, apple and peach, accompanied by notes of citrus, dried fruit, hazelnut and delicate spicy and toasted nuances. On the palate, it is structured and deep, with a creamy effervescence, well-integrated freshness and marked savouriness. The finish is long, elegant and precise, with mineral and slightly spicy notes that underline its assertive character.
A Champagne of great personality and character, ideal for discerning tastings and special occasions. It pairs perfectly with substantial fish dishes, premium shellfish, refined white meats and complex culinary creations. It is also interesting when paired with slightly spiced dishes.
To fully appreciate its style, this wine should be served at a temperature of 8–10°C.
