Bollinger Vieilles Vignes Françaises, Blanc de Noirs 1996 (1 BT)

Bollinger Vieilles Vignes Françaises, Blanc de Noirs 1996

Excellent level, label slightly soiled and slightly scuffed; Excellent niveau, étiquette légèrement sale et légèrement éraflée

Made in minute quantity (2,600 bottles) this year. Much more concentrated than the 1999, with that 1996 combination of acidity and sweetness. Hugely impressive and individual. A complete finish of the ocean. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

This beautiful cellar was assembled by an avid wine collector with a taste for the fine and eclectic, spanning 1er and Grand Cru Burgundy and Champagne Icons. All the wines were removed from a temperature-controlled private cellar and purchased from reputable sources. The interests of this passionate collector are well-evidenced here, showcasing lots from all the greatest Burgundy Domaines together with the most recent sought-after names.
