Champagne Bollinger La Grande Année 2014 (98 VM)
“The 2014 La Grande Année is stunning. In fact, it is one of the best recent editions I can remember tasting. What comes through most is the wine’s sizzling energy and tension, qualities that aren’t often associated with Bollinger, where the Champagnes tend to show more breadth and volume. In 2014, readers will find a Grande Année built on linear intensity and drive. [This is] a truly magical Grande Année that will delight Champagne fans for several decades. I can’t recommend the 2014 highly enough. It’s a total knock-out.” – AG

Champagne
La Grande Année is crafted only in exceptional vintages, made from the finest Grand and Premier Cru grapes. Vinified exclusively in small, old oak barrels using a rare artisanal tradition preserved by Bollinger’s master cooper, this method elevates each vintage’s character with remarkable finesse. After an extended period of lees ageing under natural cork, every bottle is still riddled and disgorged entirely by hand. A jewel of the Maison, La Grande Année is a pure expression of Bollinger’s excellence and a testament to the enduring Art of Craftsmanship.

Bollinger is one of the rare Grande Marques that’s still family owned. Known for its rich, elegant and polished style of Champagne, their outstanding wines are the result of rigorous attention to detail and incredibly labor-intensive practices that few houses are willing to undertake. Underscoring its excellence, Bollinger has remained British secret agent James Bond's Champagne of choice since 1973.
