History
The Bollinger House also makes magnificent red wines, such as the legendary Cote aux Enfants, in Ay. Bollinger Rose was only just created in 2008. This Rose is especially distinct because it uses only 8% of still red wine, as opposed to 15-20% many others will use. Bollinger is known for their magnificent still red wine, Côte aux Enfants, and uses the same rigor in making a red from the Poirier Saint-Pierre and Montboeuf plots in Verzenay to make the red for this NV Rose Because only great wines make great champagnes.
Tasting notes
Color: Bronze tones combined with the intense depth of a great red wine.
Nose: The nobility of red berries: hints of red currant, cherry and wild strawberry ; a spicy touch, not unlike Special Cuvee.
Palate: A subtle combination of structure, length and vivacity, with a tannic finish due to the addition of red wine; bubbles as fine as velvet; flavours of wild berries.
With its intimate and unusual flavours, Bollinger Rosé can be served for afternoon tea, Bollinger style. It is also perfect for a picnic on a summer afternoon, as a predinner drink or served with a fruity and tart dessert. To fully appreciate its unique style, bouquet and aromas, Bollinger Rosé is best served between 10 and 12°C. Enjoy it now!
