About the Bollinger La Grande Annee Brut Rose 2015
La Grande Année Rosé, the embodiment of an exceptional and timeless champagne. This red wine comes from a steep hill on the outskirts of Aÿ and is made in the Burgundian style, aged in small oak barrels. It is only produced when the maturation of the grapes is considered exceptional.
Delicate pink reflections. A nose full of primary aromas, offering a delicious composition of fruit flavours, blending strawberry juice, mandarin and rhubarb. Silky, the prelude to a voluptuous, juicy wine. On the palate, stone fruits set the tone ahead of a finish full of blood orange notes, a harmonious combination which shapes a tannic and elegant structure. A delicate hint of oiliness on the finish brings the tasting to a close.
97 Points - Wine Spectator
Like a racing spinnaker, this is tightly trimmed yet voluminous in character. Toasty notes of roasted almond and vanilla wafer are deftly integrated with sun-dried black cherry, baked peach, blood orange sorbet and candied ginger flavors, all well-defined by racy acidity and a subtle streak of salinity. This is long and fragrant, with pain d'épices, graphite and tea rose notes playing on the finish. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
96 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Bollinger's 2015 Brut La Grande Année Rosé was disgorged in May last year with seven grams per liter dosage. Offering up deep aromas of orchard fruits, blood orange, mandarin rind and peach mingled with nuances of coffee, praline and fino sherry, it's medium to full-bodied, pillowy and layered, with a broad attack that segues into a vinous palate framed by high levels of structuring dry extract that makes its presence felt on the sapid, nutty and penetrating finish. Given the skin maturity and inherent structure of the year, the Bollinger team elected to include only 4.5% of still red wine in the blend, a comparatively low percentage.
95 Points - James Suckling
This elegant, medium-bodied rosé includes select plots of pinot noir from the Cote Aux Enfants vineyard. It shows a medium orange-amber color, dark cherry-skin and candied-plum aromas followed by vivid strawberry and blood-orange flavors. Marked by finesse, light but very flavorful, complex and layered.
