Champagne Bollinger SPECIAL CUVÉE Brut 12% ABV in a 0.75-litre bottle is the flagship product of the long-established Champagne Bollinger house and is one of the best-known champagnes from the Champagne region. The name ‘Special Cuvée’ was coined back in 1911, when Champagne Bollinger’s British representative felt that the simple designation ‘Non-Vintage Brut’ did not do justice to the exceptional quality of this champagne. Since then, the name has come to represent the house’s distinctive style and continues to embody Bollinger’s philosophy to this day: to create a champagne of consistent quality, elegance and character, year after year.


The cuvée consists of 60% Pinot Noir, 25% Chardonnay and 15% Meunier, with over 85% of the grapes coming from Grand Cru and Premier Cru vineyards. The numerous reserve wines, some of which are aged for between seven and fifteen years in magnum bottles, make a significant contribution to this distinctive style. The ageing on the lees lasts at least twice as long as required by the appellation regulations. With a moderate dosage of 7 to 8 g/l, the Bollinger Special Cuvée Brut is harmonious, elegant and exceptionally complex. This champagne impressively combines power and finesse and ranks among the great classics of Champagne.

Tasting Note

In the glass, the Champagne Bollinger Special Cuvée Brut displays a golden hue with a very fine, elegant perlage. On the nose, a complex bouquet unfolds, featuring ripe fruit, spicy notes and hints of baked apple, fruit compote and peach. On the palate, the champagne is powerful yet lively, with a velvety effervescence, flavours of pear, brioche and delicate spices, complemented by hints of fresh walnuts. The finish is long-lasting, harmonious and characterised by impressive elegance.

Residual sugar: 7–8 g/l

The Champagne Bollinger Special Cuvée Brut is ideal as a stylish aperitif and also pairs beautifully with oysters, lobster, scallops, fine fish dishes, poultry and mature hard cheeses. Thanks to its structure, this premium champagne is also an excellent accompaniment to veal or truffle dishes. Served at a temperature of 8–10 °C, it reveals its complex aromas to the full. It can be enjoyed immediately, but also has excellent ageing potential for longer storage in the wine cellar.
