Delivery to Hong Kong SAR China Storage: 26 Jan 2021
Complex aromas and flavors of rose, grilled nuts, citrus and a gently oxidative note course through this muscular, full-bodied bubbly. Despite its power, there's a gracefulness. The aftertase combines citrus and spice.
Here the expressive nose is extremely yeasty and deeply pitched with delicious, vibrant and crisp middle weight flavors that are precise and clean on the long finish. This is a beautiful and relatively robust effort and I like the way that everything is delivered with grace and authority with a firm but not aggressive backbone of acidity. This should be high on the list for those who enjoy cellaring NV examples as it will easily support 10 to 15 years of aging but can also be enjoyed now. A very solid effort at this level.
(60% Pinot Noir, 25% Chardonnay and 15% Pinot Meunier; 8 g/l dosage; L1403801): Pale yellow. Toasty aromas of apple and pear nectar are complemented by hints of toffee, honey and orange zest. Full and expansive on the palate, offering ripe orchard and pit fruit flavors and an undercurrent of smoky minerals and buttered toast. Smooth and gently spicy on the clinging, nicely focusd finish.

Where does the legend of Bollinger begin? Does it start when Lily Bollinger took over the House when her husband died during the war? Or was it even further back, when the House received a Royal Warrant from the Court of England in 1884? Bond fans may argue it was when Ian Fleming featured Bollinger in his fourth James Bond novel, Diamonds are Forever. And the legend begins again each time a bottle is popped.
