William Fèvre Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos – Domaine 2023

Chablis Grand Cru

June 12, 2026 - Domaine William Fèvre Les Clos is a complex Grand Cru, known for its tremendous aging potential. As the largest and most prestigious Grand Cru in Chablis, Les Clos is also where Fèvre claims the title of the most influential landowner. The domaine oversees eight plots spanning 4.11 hectares, more than any other estate, with some of the vines planted by William's father as far back as 1947 and 1948. These parcels are situated on deep clay soils resting over limestone in a cooler microclimate at the top of the slope, contributing to the wine's remarkable complexity.

Wine Spectator - December 31, 2025 "A chalky, stony mineral element leads off, with peach, yellow plum and orange Creamsicle, plus touches of herbs. This is supple and juicy, with charm through the persistent, mouthwatering finish.…

Champagne Bollinger La Grande Année 2014

Champagne

June 12, 2026 - La Grande Année is crafted only in exceptional vintages, made from the finest Grand and Premier Cru grapes. Vinified exclusively in small, old oak barrels using a rare artisanal tradition preserved by Bollinger’s master cooper, this method elevates each vintage’s character with remarkable finesse. After an extended period of lees ageing under natural cork, every bottle is still riddled and disgorged entirely by hand. A jewel of the Maison, La Grande Année is a pure expression of Bollinger’s excellence and a testament to the enduring Art of Craftsmanship.

Champagne Bollinger Rosé NV

Champagne

June 12, 2026 - Bollinger Rosé is a Champagne that quietly breaks the mold. First released in 2008 and made in limited quantities, it begins as Special Cuvée before a small addition of still Pinot Noir brings vibrant red fruit, a touch of tannin and striking depth. Pinot Noir is the heart of Bollinger, making up at least 60% of all wines and shaping the Rosé’s bold yet elegant character. With one-third fermented in oak, aged for up to eight years and blended with reserve wines from magnums, this Rosé offers freshness, complexity and a silk-like texture.

Vinous - January 01, 2015 "Bright orange-pink. Fresh red berries and tangerine on the spice- and smoke-accented nose and in the mouth. Sappy and expansive, offering juicy raspberry and bitter cherry flavors and a touch…

Champagne Bollinger Vieilles Vignes Francaises 2016

Champagne

June 12, 2026 - Vieilles Vignes Françaises is Champagne’s most mythical cuvée, crafted from ungrafted Pinot Noir vines that miraculously survived the phylloxera epidemic. Two of Bollinger’s classified Grands crus, Chaudes Terres and Clos St. Jacques, continue to be farmed using traditional methods that date back to pre-phylloxera times. Created by Madame Lily Bollinger in 1969 to commemorate her 70th birthday and released in 1974, the wine quickly became a collectible, embodying a bygone era. Its rarity makes it one of the most sought-after and collectable Champagnes in the world.

Wine Spectator - September 10, 2025 "Beautifully fragrant with clove, violet and incense aromatics, this rich blanc de noirs is vinous in style. The fine, chalky mousse is almost lightly tannic in texture, and with the…
