Producer Notes:
Produced only when a harvest achieves perfect balance, this cuvée embodies the artistry mastered by the men and women of the House, enhancing an exceptional vintage. The 2018 vintage is characterized by its elegance and finesse, with a rich bouquet of ripe fruit and floral notes, followed by a long, smooth finish.
To the eyes:
A golden yellow color, reflecting the wine's maturity, but also Bollinger's winemaking methods.
To the nose:
The initial nose bursts with fresh citrus and Granny Smith apple, enhanced by notes of orchard fruits: white peach, apricot, and mirabelle plum. When aerated, fresh almond comes through amid aromas of breadcrumbs and acacia honey. This aromatic harmony is organized around a beautiful central theme, where citrus and mineral notes mingle with a delicate touch of white peony.
On the palate:
A structured and balanced palate, revealing notes of stewed fruit and quince. The texture gradually mellows, offering a creamy effervescence.
