Gault&Millau's review 2027

The nose is a taste of Christmas: gingerbread, cloves, licorice, violets, and potpourri. White-fleshed fruits emerge, along with a subtle hint of brioche and minerality as the wine breathes. On the palate, the attack is full-bodied and generous, with a lingering salinity. The aftertaste, with notes of brioche and dried fruit, leads to a clean, precise, and chalky finish that reflects the terroir. This champagne has a sublime length and pairs beautifully with braised veal sweetbreads and a reduced sauce.

Bollinger
Bollinger
Bollinger is a house founded in 1829 in the village of Aÿ-Champagne. Six generations have patiently built an impressive legacy while preserving its independence. The Bollinger style is inimitable and recognized as such by discerning champagne connoisseurs. As it approaches its bicentennial, the house continues to grow and modernize: a “cathedral”-style cellar, with a capacity of 5,000 barrels, has just been inaugurated, while a large wine tourism complex is under construction. It will notably include a luxury hotel in the family home, scheduled to open by 2029. Emilien Boutillat recently became the new cellar master.
