Bollinger RD 1979 is a mature vintage Champagne from the house of Bollinger. The `Récemment Dégorgé` series features prestige cuvées that have been aged on their lees for an extended period, in this case for many decades, before being released. The 1979 vintage is regarded as one of the finest of the 20th century, providing the wine with a monumental structure and a piercing acidity that has allowed it to age perfectly. It displays a complex profile of toasted brioche, dried mushrooms and roasted nuts, with a very low dosage to highlight its natural intensity.
