Special Cuvée is composed by more than 85% of Grand and Premiers Crus of the main three varieties: 60% Pinot Noir, 25% Chardonnay and 15% Meunier. The delicate blend is the true expression of a vintage and of most of the Reserve Wines, some of which are stored in magnums from 5 to 15 years. A cuvée with a constancy of style and quality. After alcoholic fermentation, the wine is aged in the cellar for twice the time required by the specification, with a final sugar dosage of 7-8 g/l. A beautiful aromatic complexity, Special Cuvée is the result of a precise blend of different vintages, which give the wine all its structure and make it a reference of the Bollinger style. The glass has a golden yellow color and a very fine perlage. A beautiful aromatic complexity is revealed to the nose with notes of ripe fruit and spicy hints, of toasted apples, compote and peaches. On the palate a subtle combination of structure, length and liveliness. Bubbles like velvet, with aromas of pear, brioche, spices and notes of fresh walnut. It is perfect for sharing among friends, for a simple and meaningful moment. It is the ideal Champagne to combine with a risotto with cardoons, Beaufort cheese and a hint of truffle. To fully appreciate its style, Champagne Special Cuvée should be served at a serving temperature of 8/10 ºC or choose to age it in the cellar.
