2012 Vieilles Vignes Françaises, Champagne Bollinger

2012 Vieilles Vignes Françaises, Champagne Bollinger

This is one of the fine wine world’s rarest and most precious gems. It comes from two grand cru parcels of old Pinot Noir vines planted on their own root stocks. The two walled clos, Chaudes Terres and Clos St Jacques, are both in Aÿ, near the Bollinger cellars. They are a reminder of a by-gone era, where vines were planted in a method known as layering, as had been done pre-phylloxera. Low yields of exceptional quality fruit produce one of Champagne’s most incredible wines that few are lucky to taste. Just 2193 bottles of the 2012 Vieilles Vignes Françaises were produced and numbered.
