You will like to know that…
In 1911, Georges Maison Bollinger's British agent gave him the idea for the name Special Cuvée - "special" written the English way, without an accent. He thought the French expression "Brut sans année" was no match for such a subtle champagne. More than a hundred years later, the name of Maison Bollinger's key figure champagne still symbolizes both its expertise and its history.
Bollinger Spécial Cuvée Brut is a classic of the Champagnes without years. A structured champagne, with fine bubbles, persistent, lively and elegant. Its blending and the quality of its reserve wines make it an ideal champagne as an aperitif but also to accompany a whole meal.
Blended with a majority of Pinot Noir (66%), it offers intense aromas of ripe fruit and spices, notes of roasted apple, compote and peach and in the mouth, a subtle combination of structure, length and liveliness.
