PN, made entirely from Pinot Noir to underscore the very essence and DNA of the House style, is the first new cuvée added to Bollinger’s permanent range since rosé in 2008. Each release of PN, developed as a series to bring Bollinger’s unique vision of Pinot Noir to light, will showcase a different cru from the base year that highlights its distinctive terroir and taste. The first edition of the series, PN VZ15, explores the interpretation of Pinot Noir from Verzenay 2015 and features reserve wines dating back to 2009.
Cellar aged for more than twice the time required by the appellation. The addition of about 20% reserve wines add to the wine’s exceptional aromatic intensity, especially the Pinots Noirs aged in magnums for almost 10 years.
Dosage: 7 g/L
The fruit is predominantly sourced from Verzenay (50% from 2015), characterized by the elegance, tension and salinity of Pinot Noir from this cru. Pinot Noir fruit from Aÿ, Bouzy and Tauxières were added to PN VZ15 to add aromatic synergy and complexity.

Rich risotto with lentils and even veal sweetbreads with chestnuts. Of course, we also enjoy a glass PN VZ15 with aged cheeses
Nose:
PN VZ16 is beautiful on the eye, pale gold in color. The wine opens with aromas of cherry, jam-infused fruit and dried fig. The rich, complex nose then develops towards toasted, baked notes, as well as aromas of elderflower and pear.
Palate:
The experience builds on the palate as generous fruit flavors of peach and apricot are further enhanced by hazelnut and acacia blossom notes. The wine finishes with a wonderful lively and aromatic note, reminiscent of yuzu.
