Reviewed November 2019This cuvée is a tribute to the partnership between the James Bond producers and the Bollinger house. Made from 100% Pinot Noir sourced in the Marne valley, the bouquet is elegant and fresh, with notes of fresh fruit and pastry. It's tense and straight, with a moderately firm palate showing some delicate iodine notes. Dosage: 4g/l. (YC)

When I tasted it, I immediately wondered if some of the Vieilles Vignes Françaises were declassified into this cuvée. The black cherry authority of the Pinot Noir is brought up by the barrel fermentation on the nose and in the mouth, but the back end is so clean and driven that the finish seems almost blanc de blanc like. That is the power of Ay, the chalkiest of all the terroirs for Pinot Noir!
