Decanter on CHAMPAGNE BOLLINGER

Titre

The esteemed Champagne House was evaluated in five key categories: governance, employees, community, environment and customers [...] Champagne Bollinger – which has been James Bond’s favourite bubbly since the release of Live and Let Die in 1973 – is now part of a small, exclusive group of sparkling wine producers that have been recognised for meeting high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency and accountability.

Decanter, July 2023


The fourth edition of Bollinger's limited PN series is the most expressive yet, with a hugely satisfying, expansive character. Dried pear, stewed Bramley apple and nectarine melt into the depths of reserve wine complexity, with chestnut honey and perfectly pitched savoury interest. It's surprisingly silky, the texture surprisingly weightless, the shape rounded and cushioned rather than strict or driving. A highly rewarding Champagne, ready to drink but with interesting potential to evolve over the next five years. 100% Pinot Noir, predominantly from Aÿ, with support from the villages of Tauxières and Verzenay. Based on the 2018 vintage, with 50% reserve wines back to 2009.

About CHAMPAGNE BOLLINGER

CHAMPAGNE BOLLINGER

Bollinger is a truly classic Champagne house and one of the world’s greatest wine producers, renowned for its elegance and refinement. Founded in 1829 in the village of Ay, by 1884 Bollinger received a Royal Warrant from Queen Victoria. Adding to its prestige, 1979 marked the beginning of one of the longest standing relationships in cinematic history; Bollinger has been the exclusive Champagne of James Bond ever since.
