Bollinger PN VZ19 (150cl)

Blend of the PN VZ16 edition: 100% Pinot Noir (Blanc de Noirs). Main growth: Verzenay, associated with other villages (Aÿ, Bouzy and Tarifières). Base year: 2016. Exclusive use of the cuvée.

Maturation: A maturation time in the cellar more than twice as long as the rules of the Appellation

Dosage: Moderate, 6 grams per liter

Sensations: To the eye: A colour with golden undertones. To the nose: A very expressive, fruity nose where orchard fruits are followed by red and even exotic fruit notes. A symphony of delicate, ethereal scents where every aroma comes together in perfect harmony. On the palate: We taste all the fruitiness of the nose on the palate, which blends white fruit and citrus notes in a mingling of Granny Smith acidity with fl eshy vine peach and vibrant blood orange. A supple, silky texture makes for an extremely elegant wine. A touch of salinity on the finish adds a fi nal fl ourish of complexity to this new edition.

Pairings: Thin tomato tartlet. Rosé Champagne lentils risotto style. Sweetbread and chestnuts. Langres.
