Champagne Bollinger 2014 La Grande Annee brut 97 WS

The Grande Annee 2014 comes from 21 exceptional sites on the Cote des Blancs and the Montagne de Reims. For the Pinot Noir, the grapes come mainly from Ay and Verzenay. The Chardonnays that complete the blend are mainly from Le Mesnil-sur-Oger and Oiry. In the glass, the 2014 shimmers with a golden hue. Warm aromas of honey and cereals mingle with notes of apricot, almond and hazelnut. On the palate, La Grande Cuvee is characterized by its exceptional texture and structure. Dense and persistent, the mouth surprises with its freshness and smoothness, interrupted by a nice bitterness on the finish. 97 points Wine Spectator, 95 Parker points.
