Made from 34% Chardonnay and 66% Pinot Noir, it combines the depth of long cellar aging with the precision of recently disgorged champagne—an approach that has made R.D one of the most coveted prestige cuvées in Champagne.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, it shows a luminous golden hue with a fine, persistent mousse. The nose is layered and expressive, unfolding with aromas of toasted brioche, ripe stone fruit, citrus peel, hazelnut, honey, and subtle spice, with a clear oxidative complexity from time in bottle and oak influence.\n\nThe palate is rich yet poised, driven by Pinot Noir’s structure and volume, while Chardonnay brings lift, tension, and elegance. Expect a seamless balance of maturity and freshness, with savory depth, crisp acidity, and an exceptionally long finish. Thanks to its concentration and structure, it has outstanding aging potential and will continue to evolve beautifully for many years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBollinger R.D 2007 is crafted in Champagne from carefully selected Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes, with a strong emphasis on Pinot Noir for depth and power. The first fermentation takes place in oak barrels, which adds texture and complexity, before the wine is aged in bottle under cork for at least eight years. It is disgorged just before release, preserving the freshness that defines the R.D concept and enhancing the wine’s unique combination of maturity and vitality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Champagne is well suited to refined dishes such as lobster, scallops, roast poultry, truffled risotto, or aged hard cheeses, and it also shines alongside sushi or delicate dishes with rich sauces. Serve it well chilled, ideally around 10–12°C, and consider opening the bottle 15–20 minutes before serving to allow the aromas to fully unfold. Decanting is generally unnecessary, but a brief aeration in the glass can help reveal its depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChampagne Bollinger is one of the most respected houses in Champagne, known for its firmly structured, Pinot Noir-driven style and its commitment to traditional winemaking.
