Champagne Bollinger Rosé
Champagne
November 04, 2026 - Bollinger Rosé is a Champagne that quietly breaks the mold. First released in 2008 and made in limited quantities, it begins as Special Cuvée before a small addition of still Pinot Noir brings vibrant red fruit, a touch of tannin and striking depth. Pinot Noir is the heart of Bollinger, making up at least 60% of all wines and shaping the Rosé’s bold yet elegant character. With one-third fermented in oak, aged for up to eight years and blended with reserve wines from magnums, this Rosé offers freshness, complexity and a silk-like texture.
Wine Spectator - September 01, 2026 "There’s a sense of precision to this elegant rosé Champagne, with its chalky base note and crisp, lacy mousse supporting a finely woven range of crushed white cherry and white…
Wine Advocate - August 31, 2022 "The latest release of Bollinger's NV Brut Rosé is showing especially well, offering up complex aromas of sweet stone fruit, honeycomb, freshly baked bread and orange oil, followed by a…
Wine Spectator - December 01, 2021 "While this blend parallels Special Cuvée, the wine adds graceful red fruit delicacy with the inclusion of five percent red wine from Verzenay and Aÿ. The wine’s lovely depth and…

Champagne Bollinger Special Cuvée
Champagne
November 04, 2026 - Special Cuvée is a Champagne that defies category. Pinot Noir, the most demanding grape in the region, makes up at least 60 percent of the blend, giving structure, depth and signature red fruit. One-third is fermented in oak barrels, adding silkier texture and layered flavor. Reserve wines aged in magnums under cork for up to 15 years are hand disgorged into the blend, bringing richness and complexity. Aged much longer than most Champagnes, Special Cuvée offers freshness, savory nuance and velvety texture. It is a true expression of Bollinger’s devotion at every step.
Wine Spectator - September 01, 2026 "A lovely Champagne, with a sense of elegant tailoring as the satiny mousse caresses the palate and well-honed acidity creates a mouthwatering impression that carries flavors of ripe black currant,…
Wine Advocate - August 31, 2022 "Like its rosé counterpart, the latest release of Bollinger's NV Brut Special Cuvée is showing especially well, bursting from the glass with aromas of honeyed apples, crisp stone fruit, buttery…
Wine Spectator - December 01, 2021 "A vinous Champagne, this has pinot-noir depths of flavor, the structure enhanced by barrel-fermented reserve wines. Youthfully blunt in its power, this will benefit from a year in the cellar,…
Champagne Bollinger La Côte aux Enfants Champagne 2016
Champagne
November 04, 2026 - La Côte aux Enfants is a rare and exceptional vintage Champagne made exclusively from 100% Pinot Noir. Sourced from a steep hillside vineyard on the outskirts of Aÿ, this wine showcases the finest expression of La Côte aux Enfants, particularly from the northwest side of the hill. Established by Jacques Bollinger between 1926 and 1934, the vineyard produces some of the most highly prized Pinot Noir in the region. Recognizing its potential, Champagne Bollinger crafted this wine as an ode to the vineyard, resulting in a refined and powerful Champagne.
Wine Enthusiast - "A complex nose built on particulars, a fresh handful of black cherry, mirabelle plum, quince, bergamot, jasmine and an edge of wild mint. The palate has a satin-like texture with…
James Suckling - August 03, 2026 "A Champagne for serious enthusiasts. Aromas of walnuts, quince paste and orange peel initially seem austere, but a little air reveals wet chalk and savory spices. Fine bubbles frame a…
Jeb Dunnuck - "The 2016 Champagne La Côte Aux Enfants is a deep and powerful expression of Pinot Noir from La Côte aux Enfants, pouring a bright golden-yellow hue and showing more immediacy…
Rotem & Mounir Saouma Châteauneuf-du-Pape Magis 2023
Châteauneuf-du-Pape
November 02, 2026 - Another unsurprising but jawdropping discovery when encountering the Saouma wines: Magis, Mounir’s white Chateauneuf from the heavily limestone Pierredon vineyard in Bedarrides. It makes sense that a producer of great white Burgundy would quickly become enchanted by the possibilities here. Only 3% of Chateauneuf is white, and virtually all of it is bottled after 6 months. Mounir’s chateauneuf is aged 18-24 months and has already been compared to some of the great white Burgundy crus for its depth and minerality.
Wine Spectator - "A seductive, broad, complex white that takes its time to reveal a full range of smoky, flinty layers of lush apple, candied lemon peel and oyster shell. Baking spices and…
