BOLLINGER GRANDE ANNEE 1999 |

Bollinger Grande Année 1999 Packed in 6-bottle oc63% Pinot Noir, 37% Chardonnay. Last tasted in magnum. Floral bouquet, with a touch of cloves. Lavender honey. Full, almost 'plummy' taste, followed by citrus fruits. Crisp, pretty in the middle and with a lemony finish. Fine grained texture. Fabulous with small oysters from Arcachon. The low acidity indicates 'now' drinking rather than long cellaring, but that is fine by me. Serena Sutcliffe, MW5 bts (oc)Estimates are per lot
