The 2008 Bollinger La Grande Année Brut is a masterclass in precision and power, opening with aromas of ripe orchard fruit, lemon zest, toasted brioche, and roasted hazelnuts, underpinned by subtle floral and mineral tones. The palate is expansive yet perfectly balanced, with a creamy texture, fine mousse, and vibrant acidity driving flavors of pear, citrus, almond cream, and smoky spice. The long, saline finish reflects the chalk-rich terroir and meticulous craftsmanship. A Champagne of remarkable structure and finesse, it will reward extended cellaring for decades.

Founded in 1829 in Aÿ, Bollinger is one of Champagne’s most prestigious houses, celebrated for its rich, Pinot Noir–driven style and unwavering commitment to quality. Still family-owned, the estate owns the majority of its vineyard holdings—over 60%—ensuring exceptional control over grape quality. Bollinger is renowned for vinifying primarily in small oak barrels, extended lees aging, and low dosage, resulting in Champagnes of depth, complexity, and longevity. The “La Grande Année” is only produced in outstanding vintages, serving as the house’s prestige cuvée and a benchmark for age-worthy Champagne.
