This is an exceptional set of new wines from Bollinger, one of Champagne's historic houses. From top to bottom, there isn't anything Bollinger isn't doing well these days. I recently sat down with Chef de Caves Matthieu Kaufmann to taste through a range of the house's 2009s. Readers will find notes on that tasting on this site. One of the distinguishing features of the Bollinger style is the aging of reserve wines in magnum under cork (not crown seal), a painstaking labor of love. Bollinger also has some of the most informative labels among the region's larger houses. It would be great to see Krug, Moët & Chandon, Roederer, Veuve Cliquot and a number of the region's larger houses follow suit.
