Champagne Bollinger Vieilles Vignes 2013 Ξύλινη κασετίνα

The Vieilles Vignes Françaises are intimately linked to the history of Champagne Bollinger. Ungrafted, they carry an almost vanished memory: an extraordinary and overwhelming heritage memory, that of pre-phylloxera Champagne. Les Chaudes-Terres and Clos St Jacques in Aÿ are the mythical plots of the Old French Vines of the House of Bollinger. These two miraculous enclosures, classified as Grand Cru, are planted in crowds and cultivated according to the ancient method of provignage.

Vieille Vignes Françaises 2013 is a blend of 100% Pinot Noir Grand Cru. It is only made up of the harvest of two mythical vineyards located near the House in Aÿ: Les Chaudes-Terres and Clos St Jacques.

The wine is adorned with a deep golden colour. Aromas of quince paste, plum and fresh hazelnut, to which are added those of candied lemon zest and sweet spices. A succession of notes of fleshy fruit and nuts such as almonds. A full, powerful and lively palate. The tasting of this generous and intense wine ends with a saline finish.

Τhe grapes from this harvest offer an irreproachable quality, giving birth to an intense and fresh 2013 vintage of the Vieilles Vignes Françaises.
