Bollinger Brut Special Cuvee (1.5L Magnum)
Special Cuvee is the result of the delicate blending between harvest grapes and a majority of reserve wines, including some, aged in magnums for more than 15 years in Bollinger's cellars.
The blend is 60% Pinot Noir, 25% Chardonnay and 15% Pinot Meunier, with over 85% Grands and Premiers Crus.
This cuvee is cellar aged for more than twice the time required by the Appellation.
