Its story:
La Grande Année Rosé is another expression of La Grande Année and is complemented by blending it with a red wine from La Côte aux Enfants. The grapes from this legendary parcel in Aÿ – a Bollinger monopole – are only processed into red wine once they have reached optimal ripeness. After vinification
in small, old oak barrels and extended aging on the lees, each bottle of La Grande Année Rosé is still hand-riddled and disgorged today. This wine thus represents the entire savoir faire of the house and the ability to create a cuvée whose quality is consistently unparalleled.
