Merchant's description

Fans of blanc de noirs champagne will cherish Bollinger’s prime example of a cuvée produced with 100% Pinot Noir. The wine is beautifully complex on the nose, filled with apples, herbs and toasted bread notes. The palate is concentrated and elegant. with a dense and rounded character. Full-bodied, with hints of honey and spices.
