Bollinger La Grande Année, Brut Champagne 2015 En Primeur - Case of 6



£549.00

75cl ALC 12%

Attractive dried stone fruits on the nose, yellow plum and golden honey, citrus peels, soft red fruits, tropical touches and a host of nut, toast, and cream. This has a clean salt-kissed chalky note which adds to a sense of definition and lift, and the palate shows great concentration, a firm core overlaid with layers of texture… this is less an aperitif and more a Grande Année for the main course. Drink 2028-2038+

Bollinger

Bollinger’s distinctive dry, biscuity style has long been favoured in England, the most important market for this is relatively small, but well-formed Champagne house. The style owes much to fermentation of the wine in oak barrels which is unusual in the Champagne region. Madame Lily Bollinger famously had an excuse to drink Bollinger in any state on mind. She and her nephew, Christian Bizot, after a good lunch, were also game enough to push start an old Tanners van when Richard Tanner was doing his first foray around the French vineyards in 1957!

About En Primeur

Lying Abroad/En Primeur/In Bond Wines

Wines offered ‘Lying Abroad’ or ‘En Primeur’ provide a good way to secure some of the most sought after wines at opening prices. In addition we ensure it is the cheapest way to buy favourite mid-priced wines from Bordeaux, Burgundy and the Rhône, so please ask us for our offers or check our website for latest reports. Prices are clearly marked in our sales literature and are exclusive of duty, shipping, marine insurance and VAT. Shipment of claret and Port normally takes place around 30 months after the vintage, burgundy and Rhône usually more quickly. A second invoice for the duty, shipping, marine insurance and VAT on the value of the wine is charged at the time of shipment - view current duty rates. There are no further charges for deliveries to a UK mainland home or work address. Your Lying Abroad purchases are covered under The Bunch Code of Practice which can be sent on request or viewed here.
