Overview
Bollinger Special Cuvée Champagne Brut 750ML is the “power-with-precision” NV Brut: Pinot Noir–driven depth, velvet mousse, and a long, savory finish that reads serious at the table.
Hamptons Tasting Notes
Roasted apple, poached pear, and Meyer lemon peel, followed by brioche, toasted walnut, and a ginger-spice lift. The palate is medium-to-full with mouthwatering acidity and a creamy, chalk-tinged close.
