The Maison du Champagne Bollinger was founded in 1829 thanks to the meeting between Athanase de Villermont and the German Joseph Bollinger who left Germany to discover the world of wine. The company achieved success with Madame Bollinger who revolutionized production by launching an ambitious modernization and purchase of numerous vineyards also in the Reims area. Since then Bollinger has taken flight and today owns 168 hectares of land divided between Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier and is one of the most awarded Maisons ever.

Bollinger’s Champagne Extra Brut “RD” 2008 rests on its sediments for many years. Disgorgement is only done when it leaves the cellar. The result is a Champagne that sees its aromas infinitely enhanced. Only the best of vintage Champagnes become Bollinger RD, and 2002 is certainly one of the most promising vintages of the last decade.
