This is how each micro-batch and each plot can be kept separate. - There are reserve wines kept in 800,000 magnums! - In 2015, a very warm year, the level of “fresher” chardonnay was increased to 40% from 30%; and the amount of Mountain de Rheims was also increased (over Vallee de la Marne) because these wines are “fresher and sharper” according to Denis. To this end only 11 communes out of a possible 20 were used. - Denis says that “2015 is like a firework, there is an exotic element of tropical mango with the red fruits and roast pear. It has great vinosity with a lovely slight orange-peel bitterness. It’s a hugely generous wine.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Randall's Fine Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43230445240500,"sku":"15BOLGLGA750","price":250.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0561\/1261\/1508\/files\/Bollinger_La_Grande_Anee.jpg?v=1762392773"},{"product_id":"2018-bollinger-champagne-la-grande-annee-750ml-bottle","title":"2018 Bollinger Champagne La Grande Annee 750Ml Bottle","description":"\u003cp class=\"wine-assembly__text__description\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e$259 in 6-Packs | Discount automatically applied at checkout\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"wine-assembly__text__description\"\u003eLa Grande Année 2018 is a blend of 19 crus, mainly from Verzenay, Aÿ, and Mareuil-sur-Aÿ for the 66% Pinot Noir, and Chouilly and Cuis for the 34% Chardonnay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"wine-assembly__text__description\"\u003eFermentation takes place entirely in oak barrels and maturation occurs under cork, with aging in the cellar lasting more than twice as long as required by the appellation rules.
