Producer Note
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.
Tasting Note
A salmon-pink colour, La Grande Année Rosé 2005 is extremely aromatic with strong red fruit and peachy notes. This strength on the nose is produced by the addition of 5% of the concentrated and complex Pinot Noir from the superb Côte aux Enfants vineyard. The delicious red berry flavours continue on the palate and combines with zesty citrus fruits, leave a lasting long finish. This is a wonderfully complex rosé from a tough vintage and a wine that will certainly age well.
