Sensations

While reinventing itself each year, each edition thus offers a new interpretation of the expertise and the vineyard of Maison Bollinger

Tauxières, the dominant cru in the blend of this sixth edition of Bollinger PN, contributes to the wine’s singular character. Located in the Montagne de Reims, this exceptional terroir is ideally suited to growing Pinot Noir which, in Tauxières, brings freshness, elegance, precision, and complexity to the finished wine.

Appearance

Golden yellow flecked with gold.

On the nose

The nose opens with scents of fresh citrus and lemon, followed by aromas of white stone fruits, peach and quince. The finish is enhanced by subtle mineral, flinty notes.

On the palate

First, notes of redcurrant and subtle freshness. Then comes beautiful richness, depth and vinosity with delicate touches of stewed fruits bringing extra complexity, all coming together in a lovely long finish. 

The Tauxières vineyard

Tauxières: A Cru of Elegance and Precision

Situated on the southwest slopes of the Montagne de Reims, the Tauxières cru benefits from a unique exposure and soil, blending chalk and clay, creating ideal conditions for the Pinot Noir to thrive. This prestigious vineyard is renowned for the freshness, elegance, and aromatic complexity it imparts to the wines. It is from this exceptional terroir that the PN TX20 cuvée draws its structure, precision, and distinctive character.

“This cuvée, made entirely from Pinot Noir, is part of what makes up the essence, the DNA, of our Maison: it represents a singular vision of our trademark grape variety as well as the uncompromising work we have invested in fulfilling a mission that has been inspiring us since 1829, the quest to become creators of style”.

Charles-Armand de Belenet, Directeur Général de Champagne Bollinger.
