The estate and the wine |
|

At the pinnacle of Champagne, Bollinger is part of the exclusive circle of elite houses that have remained family-owned. Highly sought after by enthusiasts, it has built its reputation on a distinctive style that sets it apart.
From fermentation in small oak barrels to ageing reserve wines in magnums and extended maturation of its cuvées, Bollinger upholds every hallmark of excellence. The result? Rich, complex, and refined Champagnes, driven by Pinot Noir and crafted with unmistakable depth.
A three-star estate in the French wine guide RVF, this iconic Champagne House remains a benchmark for gastronomic Champagne. Its legendary cuvées—Grande Année, R.D., and now its single-vineyard releases—are among the most coveted by collectors worldwide. |

Brilliant, with a toasty, pastry-like character, the 2008 white Champagne R.D. Extra Brut is powerful and creamy to the touch. It's an intensely rich, yet taut, full-bodied Champagne, offering the persistence and vinosity of the greatest vintages produced by this brilliant wine. This is the most racy R.D. since the legendary 2002. Rated 98+/100 by Parker. |
