A 6 litre, methuselah size bottle. Bollinger Special Cuvee has a rich, biscuity nose with a hint of summer fruits. On the palate, full flavours of nuts and toast and some citrus characters abound, balanced by excellent acidity. The Special Cuv�e is the purest expression of Bollinger's style. !!<Background: >!!Bollinger uses only the �cuv�e� juice in the making of Special Cuv�e. Depending on vintage, 100% of Grand Cru's and part of the Premier Cru's are barrel fermented. Bollinger uses small stainless steel tanks to conduct the fermentation of the other cru's. Special Cuv�e is a blend of wines coming from the most recent harvest, and also wines from previous harvests, including reserve wines held in magnum. After second fermentation, Special Cuv�e then ages in cellars for at least 3 years. After riddling and disgorging Special Cuv�e then rests in cellars for a minimum of 3 months prior to shipment. Methuselah - 6 ltr bottle. Presented in a red Bollinger branded Wood Box. |
