Tenuta Luce Luce 2022
Toscana IGT
June 15, 2026 - Luce is a bold, Super Tuscan wine that blends the power of Sangiovese with the roundness of Merlot, creating a unique expression of Montalcino. Born from a partnership between the Marchese Vittorio Frescobaldi and Robert Mondavi, the wine combines dark fruit, floral and spice notes, and chewy tannins, showcasing the region’s distinctive character. The estate’s name, “Luce” (light), is inspired by the altar at Florence’s Santo Spirito church, reflecting the estate’s deep-rooted history and the balance between tradition and innovation.
James Suckling - May 08, 2025 "A dark and complex wine with aromas of bramble fruit, graphite and minerals. Full-bodied, it shows huge extraction and supple fruit concentration. Firm tannins with a stern but good finish."
Wine Spectator - June 23, 2025 "Well-marked by new oak, this red is saturated with cherry, plum, iron, vanilla, sweet Bourbon and resin aromas and flavors. Fluid and elegant, with assertive tannins shoring up the crisp,…

Wine Spectator - February 04, 2026 "A rich range of black cherry coulis, grilled macadamia nut, poached peach, and crystallized honey and ginger is seamlessly knit with racy acidity and a chalky underpinning in this statuesque…
Wine Enthusiast - March 31, 2026
Wine Advocate - March 19, 2026 "From a relatively cool, mildew-pressured year that did not deliver sufficient fruit for Aÿ to serve as the principal component—and thus precluded the making of La Grande Année—Bollinger instead opted…
Champagne Bollinger La Côte aux Enfants Rouge 2019
Coteaux Champenois
June 12, 2026 - La Côte aux Enfants Rouge is a stunning, extremely rare, still red wine produced only in the greatest vintages. This wine harmoniously combines 100% Pinot Noir Grand Cru fruit from an exceptional vineyard with traditional Burgundian style winemaking. Historically, Pinot Noirs from Aÿ were the most popular wines of the French court, specifically a favorite of King Henri IV, and La Côte aux Enfants comes from a steep plot just outside of the village. This wine is the purest expression of Pinot Noir, offering a fine, delicate texture and a tautness on the long finish.
James Suckling - August 02, 2023 "A fascinating red with plums, berries and ripe strawberries. Iron shavings and hints of stems. Crushed stone. Medium- to full-bodied, with lovely minerality and spices at the end. Racy. Give…
Jeb Dunnuck - December 15, 2025 "The medium red colored 2019 Coteaux Champenois La Cote Aux Enfants is savory and ripe without weight. It reveals notes of red cherries, spiced plum, smoky wet stones, and graphite.…
Champagne Bollinger La Côte aux Enfants Champagne 2015
Champagne
June 12, 2026 - Established by Jacques Bollinger between 1926 and 1934, La Côte aux Enfants is a steep hillside vineyard located on the outskirts of Aÿ. The name La Côte aux Enfants, or "the Children's Hillside," comes from local legend: the slope was once so steep that only children could climb it. That spirit of singular, almost improbable terroir is exactly what this wine delivers. This unique parcel has been a source of endless fascination, producing some of the most highly prized Pinot Noir in the region.
Jeb Dunnuck - December 15, 2025 "Sourced from two hectares in Aÿ, this is the third release of La Côte Aux Enfants Brut, following 2012 and 2014. The 2015 Champagne Blanc De Noirs La Côte Aux…
Champagne Bollinger R.D. 2008
Champagne
June 12, 2026 - The R.D. cuvée is the result of Madame Bollinger’s grand vision. It was an innovative and spectacular cuvée for the time when the fashion was not for old Champagnes: an old vintage, recently disgorged and with an extra-brut dosage. Releasing it promptly after disgorgement captures both the remarkable complexity and extraordinary freshness in the same glass. Fermented barrel by barrel, bottled under cork, and hand-disgorged, R.D. is one of Champagne's most original and important cuvées.
