Bollinger PN AYC18 Blanc de Noirs Champagne (No Discount Available)

Our Verdict

"PN AYC18 is a showpiece for the expansive dimensions, intoxicating allure and purity of Aÿ pinot noir; a wonderfully characterful blanc de noirs that celebrates the sumptuous fruit generosity of 2018 and the purity and precision of this fabled cru." 97 Points - Tyson Stelzer

"The fourth edition of Bollinger's limited PN series is the most expressive yet, with a hugely satisfying, expansive character. Dried pear, stewed Bramley apple and nectarine melt into the depths of reserve wine." 93 points - Tom Hewson, Decanter

Bollinger PN AYC18, made exclusively from Pinot Noir, has been crafted by the House to express its unique vision of this specific grape variety.

This new AYC18 blend, the House's fourth edition, explores the unique interpretation of Pinot Noir from the chalky south facing slopes of Aÿ in 2018. This is the principal cru in the blend, blended with Montagne de Reims villages, including Tauxières and Verzenay.

PN TX17 was a wine focused on precision and vivacity, whereas PN AYC18 displays a rich and expansive character. The 2018 vintage was one of warmth and abundance, which complemented Aÿ especially well, with the base wines displaying all the unique hallmarks of Pinot Noir from this terroir: a linear character, length and breadth.
