Winemaker Notes
The Bollinger La Grande Année is the pinnacle of Bollinger’s Champagne styles and is produced only in the best years. Fruit is sourced entirely from Grand Cru and Premier Cru vineyard sites in Champagne. The base wine was aged solely in old oak barrels, providing additional depth and nutty complexity. After secondary fermentation, the wine is aged on lees for more than five years before disgorgement.
Food Pairing Notes
Prawn or crab ravioli, foie gras and porccini mushrooms
