2012 is the second vintage of La Grande Année to be bottled in the new '1846' bottle which is to replicate a small magnum. This bottle is inspired by a 19th-century bottle discovered in the Bollinger cellars which dates back to 1846. The idea in using the curved shape of the bottle is to aim for the perfect balance of a “small magnum” with a narrower neck and a wider base, to very slightly slow down the oxygen exchange and therefore give a better quality wine with longer ageing potential.
The vintage Bollinger Champagne is beautifully presented in a stylish Bollinger Grande Année box. Add your own special message to the complementary gift card to create a truly special vintage Champagne gift.
