Aromas of crisp orchard fruit with brioche and toasty nuttiness before a fine yet indulgent palate of rich fruit, honeyed citrus and stone fruit and a charming note of fine spice before a long creamy finish.

Established in Ay in 1829, the house of Bollinger makes "classic, Pinot dominated Champagnes of great potential longevity and complexity. Run by Ghislain de Montgolfier, great-grandson of the founder, Bollinger remains family owned to this day. The winemaker is Alsace born Mathieu Kauffmann, who uses Pinot Noir in the Special Cuvée to lend summer berry notes, while Chardonnay gives it a delicate creaminess. 10% reserve wine - up to 15 years old - contributes the complexity you expect from this great name. Madame Lily Bollinger, who died in 1971, was the wine's greatest ambassador. Once, when asked how she enjoyed her Champagne, she replied, "I drink it when I'm happy and when I'm sad. Sometimes I drink it when I'm alone. When I have company I consider it obligatory. I trifle with it if I'm not hungry and drink it when I am. Otherwise, I never touch it unless I'm thirsty!"

Expertly blending over 85% Grand and Premier Cru grapes, with reserve wines aged up to 15 years
