Lot #363. Bollinger R.D. Extra Brut 2002

Description: Consists of 3 Bottles, 0.75L
Region: France, Champagne.
Score: 99 JS.
"Super fresh, this is striking given the 10 years in the cellars; it has a fine citrus nose - plenty of lemon, grapefruit, yellow chalky notes, some lighter floral elements too. The palate is super dry (dosage at 3-4g) and there's a silky, sherbet-like texture, smooth, fine and long. The citrus flavours give way to the driving surging acidity, thunderous acidity, really driving and powerful. The finish twists very slowly through to light-toasted cashew fruit flavours, but lemon citrus prevails. This is thrilling Champagne. Disgorged 22nd October, 2013." JamesSuckling.com, May 9th, 2014
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $425
