TASTING NOTES

Champagne R.D. Extra Brut is unique, the result of a powerful, rare and prestigious production. The blend of this vintage is 71% Pinot Noir and 29% Chardonnay. In the blending you can find a total of 18 cru, mainly Aÿ and Verzenay for Pinot Noir and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger and Cramant for Chardonnay. Fermentation takes place entirely in French oak barrels. Bollinger R.D. is marketed a few months after disgorgement, with a very low dosage called "extra brut", of only 3 grams per liter. The recent disgorgement guarantees the remarkable freshness of the wine. Champagne R.D. is presented to the glass of golden yellow color with clear and brilliant nuances, has a very fine and not very persistent perlage. The nose is complex with aromas of honey and apricot. These nuances are accompanied by spicy notes of ginger and cumin, before evolving into mineral notes of brioche and fresh almond. The palate opens very intense, with an incredible freshness and complexity. To highlight its elegance, Champagne R.D. is excellent with very light fish dishes, or a creamy and delicate dessert. To fully appreciate its style, this Champagne should be served at a serving temperature of 8/10 ºC. Read more Read less
THE WINERY

Bollinger

A form of perfection, Maison Bollinger has been crafting the finest Champagne with a refined, complex and elegant style since 1829. The 179 hectares of estate vineyards consist of 85% Grand and Premiers Crus divided into the cultivation of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier grapes. Bollinger's underground wine cellar winds its way through kilometres of stone tunnels, directed by Mathieu Kauffman, who obsessively and meticulously controls all production processes, according to tradition and even rejecting some innovative techniques. The remuage of bottles, for example, is still done by hand. After the first fermentation in stainless steel or wooden vats, the wines are bottled in spring and descended into the silence of the chalk galleries, where they rest for at least three years for the Cuvée Speciale and several more years for the vintages. It is this long resting period that gives the aromas this rare delicacy and the perlage a velvety perlage and texture. The Bollinger style is inimitable and recognised worldwide as such by all great Champagne lovers. Each Bollinger Champagne is the result of production at the top of the French houses. Name and address of producer/distributor: Champagne Bollinger, 16 Rue Jules Lobet, 51160 Aÿ-Champagne - France. Products from this winery should be stored in a cool, dry place away from heat sources.
