Tasting notes Bollinger R.D. Gift

Champagne Extra Brut. 8 3 años en botella sin degüelle.

Bollinger R.D. 2008 unfurls with a subtle charm and a mature character, skirting the edges of sweetness. On the nose, it entices with a spectrum of scents reminiscent of marzipan and honey, interwoven with the zest of bergamot. On the palate, it is vigorous and intricate, with bubbles that pirouette to the rhythm of a rich and precise effervescence. Notes of Mirabelle plums and vineyard peaches merge with citrus highlights, culminating in a lengthy, saline finish that conjures images of fresh hazelnuts. The creamy texture of Bollinger R.D. 2008 renders it an enveloping and expressive champagne.

Bollinger R.D. is a champagne made by the Bollinger winery, in Ay, in the heart of the Champagne region.



Since its foundation in 1829 in the Montagne de Reims, Maison Bollinger continues to make and age its champagnes as it has always done, managing to imprint the famous Bollinger identity seal, synonym of quality and prestige, year after year.

Bollinger has 174 hectares of its own vineyards available to produce most of its wines. 85% of these vineyards are classified as Grand Cru and Premier Cru, with two outstanding plots with pre-phylloxera vines, Clos Saint-Jacques and Chaudes Terres.

One of the most appreciated unique features of Bollinger are the reserve wines, bottled and aged in a corked magnum and classified by vintages, thus forming one of the largest reserves of this type of wine in the area.
 

Bollinger RD is a champagne made with Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from vineyards that are 88% Grands Crus and the rest Premiers Crus. The soils are clayey-sandy with the presence of limestone.

The grapes are harvested at the optimum moment of ripeness using an exhaustive selection process, and are then fermented exclusively in oak barrels for over 5 years. The wine is aged in corked bottles for at least 8 years. It is a champagne with 3 grams of sugar per litre - an Extra Brut. The acronym RD means "recently disgorged" and the date of disgorgement is on the back-label.

 It is the most distinguished champagne of the Maison Bollinger and is only produced in those vintages in which the quality of the grapes is exceptional. Great storage capacity.
