Description
History
The maison was founded in 1829 by Athanase Louis Emmanuel Count of Villermont in partnership with the German Joseph Bollinger and Paul Ranaudin. It was the German himself, in the years to come, who became the symbolic man of the company that still bears his name today. Bollinger has always focused on the quality of the product, obviously helped by the favorable position in which his vineyards are located, even arriving in 1884 to receive the Royal Warrant of the English Court. To date, the company has about 160 hectares which extend mainly in the Montagne de Reims and Ay, half classified as Grand Crus and the rest as Premier Crus.

Tasting notes
It has an intense golden yellow color with a very fine and gritty perlage. The nose immediately perceives intensity and energy, with notes of candied citrus fruits, orange honey, ginger, turmeric and curry, with notes of pastry and melted butter. Great sensations of minerality.
