2015 Bollinger La Grande Annee Brut
The Champagne House of Bollinger was established in 1829 by Jacques Bollinger and Paul Renaudin. The legendary Mme. Lily Bollinger ran the company between 1941 and 1977 and today it is managed by her great-nephew, Ghislain de Montgolfier. The obsessive attention to detail and the preservation of artisanal, almost absurdly labor-intensive practices, represents a quest for perfection which has built a reputation for powerful, polished Champagnes. At Bollinger, only exceptionally high-quality harvests are deemed worthy of becoming a vintage Champagne. The 2015 vintage gave birth to a wine which is flawlessly structured, rich and complex, in terms of both its minerality and intensity. Chef de Cave Denis Bunner remarked that the 2015 - "Reminded me of the ripe and generous 1989 vintage" and that the "2015 offers the fruitiness of 1989 with the appealing dry quality of 1976." Towering in sophistication and refined beyond words the Triple 96 Point 2015 La Grande Annee is easily one of the most stylish and structured Champagnes we have tasted this year.
