2015 Brut Champagne La Grande Année Bollinger Rhône-Nord fresh apple with a hintSuckling 96, Enticing, fragrant aromas of toast, lemon zest and an earthy smoky nuance lead to a palate of subtle Bosc pear, mango, papaya, even pineapple flavors. Lifted by fresh acidity on the medium bodied palate, the wine keeps unfolding in toasted walnuts, honey and a dash of bitter marmalade. It's mouth filling, alive with acidity and full of finesse. Drink or hold. Galloni 96, Drinking Window 2028 2040 From: Champagne: The 2024 Spring Preview
