Bollinger B13 Blanc de Noirs 2013

Description

In 2013, the Champagne region faced unique weather conditions with a long winter punctuated by snow and frost. Despite these turbulent circumstances, Champagne Bollinger shaped the wine from this particularly late harvest into a vintage, and by doing so, also made a limited edition : B13, which stands for Bollinger 2013. It’s thanks to the ethical farming practices that Bollinger employs in the vineyard that the Champagne House constantly benefits from undeniably high-quality grapes, no matter how difficult certain years can be. This champagne has a colour with golden undertones. Rich and complex nose. Opening with notes of ripe fruits, fruit jellies and almond paste leading to aromas of mirabelle plum and vine peach. The palate begins with generosity and elegant fruit with flavours of pear, fresh almonds and tarte Tatin are marked by the chiselled, mineral expression of Pinot Noir bringing citrus and candied lemon notes. Velvety persistence with a saline hint on the finish The Finer Details Style – Champagne Varietal – Pinot Noir Country – France Region – Champagne Vintage – 2013 Bottle Size – 750ml ABV – 12.5%
