Decanter, May 2017

This wine shows what larger formats, in this case magnum, can bring, with complex fruit confit flavours of peche des vignes and dried apricot. A bonny baby, still very tight, showing huge potential. (Drink between 2020-2030)

I loved the 2007 La Grande Année, which is based on 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay. Over 90% of this cuvée was sourced from Grand Cru sites, with the balance from Premier Cru villages. Vinified all in older barrels and...

A bright, lacy Champagne, offering a tapestry of finely woven flavors: graphite and ground spice, crushed blackberry and dried apricot, toast and honeycomb. Firm and focused, with a lasting, chalky finish. Drink now...

The 2007 Bollinger Grande Annee is a Champagne blend that exudes both elegance and complexity. With its roots in the esteemed Champagne region of France, this wine is composed of 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay, primarily sourced from Grand Cru sites. Vinified in older barrels and aged for six years on lees, it showcases the traditional craftsmanship of the Bollinger house.

James Suckling describes the wine as having "super attractive lemon essence and lime pickle on the nose," and notes its "toasty warmth" and "bright, almost tropical fruits." He finds the palate "very open and appealing," suggesting it is best enjoyed young.

Wine Spectator rates it at 94 points, highlighting its "bright, lacy" character and "tapestry of finely woven flavors," including graphite, crushed blackberry, and honeycomb. The firm, focused finish is complemented by a "lasting, chalky" note, making it suitable for consumption now through 2027.

Jeb Dunnuck and Robert Parker's Wine Advocate also awarded it 94 points. Dunnuck praises its "deep, rich, creamy style" and "full-bodied notes of ripe stone fruits, wood smoke, and spice." He points out its "vibrant acidity, impressive length, and notable purity," predicting a lifespan of 10-15 years.

Stephan Reinhardt from Wine Advocate mentions its "very clear, fine and complex bouquet" and calls it "highly elegant, fine and pure but complex on the palate." He suggests it can be enjoyed now and over the next 12 to 15 years.

Decanter gives the highest score of 95 points, observing "complex fruit confit flavors of peche des vignes and dried apricot," and noting its "huge potential" with a recommended drinking window between 2020-2030.

Overall, the 2007 Bollinger Grande Annee is a well-structured, full-bodied Champagne that promises longevity, elegance, and a complex array of flavors.
