Champagne Bollinger La Grande Année Rosé 2015
Champagne
June 12, 2026 - La Grande Année Rosé is produced only in select vintages, born from Lily Bollinger’s one condition—that any Bollinger rosé must be extraordinary. It is a subtle blend of La Grande Année and a small percentage of red wine from La Côte Aux Enfants, a Grand Cru vineyard in Aÿ used only when Pinot Noir reaches perfect ripeness. Producing red wine of this quality in Champagne is rare, and it showcases the House’s mastery of Pinot Noir. With deep color, balanced aromas, and refined vinosity, La Grande Année Rosé reflects its terroir, with remarkable aging potential.

Jancis Robinson - May 29, 2024 "Pale, slightly gris salmon pink (a little paler than the Billecart 2012 Elisabeth Salmon rosé tasted alongside). Heady, mushroomy, off-dry, sumptuous Bollinger gloriousness on the palate. I wonder what the…
Champagne Bollinger La Grande Année Rosé 2014
Champagne
June 12, 2026 - La Grande Année Rosé is a singular expression of La Grande Année, distinguished by the addition of red wine from the iconic La Côte aux Enfants vineyard. This legendary Aÿ parcel is owned entirely by Champagne Bollinger and vinified into red wine only in years when the grapes reach optimum ripeness. Fermented in small old oak barrels and aged for an extended period on the lees, every bottle is still riddled and disgorged by hand. The result is a cuvée of exceptional purity, reflecting the full expertise and savoir-faire of the Maison.

Le Macchiole Paleo Rosso 2022
Toscana IGT
June 12, 2026 - Le Macchiole Paleo Rosso is regarded as Italy’s defining expression of Cabernet Franc, showcasing the grape’s potential in Bolgheri. The Mediterranean climate yields a wine with deep, expressive fruits and savory spices, all with remarkable texture. Originally a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese, and Cabernet Franc, the 2000 vintage led to an increase in Cabernet Franc, bringing freshness and acidity. By 2001, it was bottled as a single-varietal, the first in Bolgheri, setting the standard for Italian Cabernet Franc.

Le Macchiole Messorio 2022
Toscana IGT
June 12, 2026 - Messorio is Le Macchiole’s crown jewel and one of Italy’s most iconic Merlots. First produced in 1994, it marked a daring shift in Bolgheri, where blending was the norm and single-variety wines were nearly unheard of. That bold decision became a defining one. Messorio is soulful and expressive, with a texture like silk and layers of finesse that unfold slowly in the glass. The name refers to the wheat harvest, once the most important time of year in Bolgheri. Today, that honor goes to the grape harvest, especially when it yields a wine like this.
Wine Enthusiast - November 01, 2025 "The cool, fresh, saline nose of dirt, herbs, new leather, tulips and hibiscus candy glides into a palate which is sweeter but still coherent, with flavors of blackberries, cherries, wild…
Wine Spectator - June 11, 2025 "Purity is the hallmark of this vibrant, black cherry–, blackberry- and violet-flavored red. Solidly built, with refined tannins that will require time to integrate, yet overall this is balanced and…
James Suckling - May 08, 2025 "A dark and restrained wine with mint, balsamic, cassis and graphite aromas. The full-bodied palate is smooth and velvety, with crisp acidity, extracted yet ripe tannins and flavors of dark…
