What is this wine?
Founded in 1829, Bollinger is one of Champagne’s most prestigious houses, famed for its Pinot Noir–driven, full-bodied style. La Grande Année is its flagship vintage cuvée, produced only in exceptional years. The 2014 blend is about two-thirds Pinot Noir and one-third Chardonnay, sourced mainly from grand cru and premier cru vineyards. It was vinified in small oak barrels and aged for nearly seven years on the lees before disgorgement, reflecting Bollinger’s meticulous craftsmanship.

Why get this wine?
La Grande Année is among the greatest expressions of vintage Champagne—rich, structured, and built for aging. The 2014 vintage combines Bollinger’s signature depth with notable freshness, making it both accessible now and cellar-worthy for decades. For collectors and Champagne lovers alike, this is a benchmark wine that bridges power and elegance.

What does this wine taste like?
Complex and layered, with notes of citrus, apple, and stone fruit alongside brioche, roasted nuts, and hints of spice. The palate is full-bodied yet taut, driven by vibrant acidity and chalky minerality, finishing long and refined.

When should you drink this wine?
Excellent now with decanting, but best from 2026 onward as tertiary complexity develops. Will cellar gracefully for 15–20+ years. A perfect pairing with fine seafood, roasted poultry, or truffled dishes.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 98

"Bollinger’s 2014 La Grande Année is a great way to start the evening as guests mill around Wheeler Farms. It is early evening in Napa, but there is still plenty of action in the winery, where various lots are being pressed under the watchful eye of winemaker Nigel Kinsman. There are some moments where I would very much like to be a civilian, a regular person enjoying the night, but I am more concerned with our guests having a great night, so I quickly go back to check on our wines. The Bollinger 2014 is everything I expected; bright, focused and full of all the energy this late-ripening vintage conferred to the best wines." -Antonio Galloni

Robert Parker

RP 95

"Offering up complex aromas of crisp yellow orchard fruit, confit citrus, frangipane, walnuts, dried white flowers and subtle hints of iodine, Bollinger's 2014 Brut La Grande Année is medium to full-bodied, pillowy and vinous, with an elegantly fleshy core of fruit that's underpinned by racy acids and complemented by a pretty pinpoint mousse. Concluding with a long, chalky finish, this is a charming but precise Grande Année that's more giving and demonstrative than its immediate predecessor, the 2012, but which attains a very similar level of quality in a more challenging vintage—testimony to the serious viticulture that underpins Bollinger's contemporary excellence." -William Kelley

"With the hallmark Bollinger richness that is derived from fermentation in wood and a high percentage of Pinot Noir in the blend, this grand wine is ripe, full of apple and spice flavors. It is drinkable now, but still young. Keep until 2024." -Roger Voss

Champagne

Champagne boasts some of the world’s greatest luxury brands with Krug, Cristal and, of course, Dom Perignon. But it’s also home to hundreds of small dynamic producers—farmers who grow their own grapes (often organically) and make (often with natural methods) tiny amounts of pure and absolutely delicious wine that reflect the individual personalities of their villages and terroirs. Toast with these wines, for sure. But also treat them like the great wines they are: taste, drink, explore!
