These vines, deeply rooted in the prestigious crus of Ay, Verzy, and Toursur-Marne, produce grapes of exceptional concentration and character, resulting in a Champagne of remarkable depth and elegance. Founded in 1829, Bollinger has built a reputation for crafting powerful and expressive Champagnes, with Pinot Noir playing a starring role. Vieilles Vignes Françaises exemplifies this dedication. Sourced from meticulously tended old vines, some exceeding 50 years in age, the grapes for this cuvee possess an intensity that translates into a truly captivating Champagne Experience the harmonious symphony of flavours in Bollinger Vieilles Vignes Francaises 2012.
Delicate notes of ripe fruit dance alongside hints of toasted almonds and a subtle minerality, creating a complex yet balanced palate. Aromas of ripe red fruits like cherries and plums intertwine with intriguing hints of spice, earth, and a touch of leather. Subtle floral notes add a touch of elegance.
