it is dazzling

austere and incredibly persistent finish

Both were superb

the wine continued showing the riper character and more Mediterranean profile of the vineyard

but this is a super-impressive wine in every way

Bollinger, La Grande Annee other_regions it is dazzlingDisgorged January 2005. A deeper hue compared to the 1999, the nose with greater intensity, with delicate honeyed buttery tones, green apples, a little more mushroomy just in the background, great lift and gaining intensity in the glass. Quintessential Bollinger bouquet. The palate has a rich entry, very good ripeness with touches of clear honey, a touch of mango, melted butter, white flowers and much greater weight than the 1999.
