Bollinger : La Grande Année 2000

This year was subject to a mild winter but a spring that was favourable to vine parasites. Moreover, hailstorms beat down on more than 10,000 hectares, thus restraining the good yield of the harvest although summer was alternating rainfalls and sunshine. This gave rise to an extraordinary vine growth. The Grande Année 2000 is a blend of 16 different growths, by 76% Grands Crus and 24% Premiers Crus. The grape varieties used are Pinot Noir by 63% then Chardonnay by 37%.
