The single parcel of La Côte Aux Enfants has long been the source for Bollinger’s still red wine for both their Rosé and their Coteaux Champenois bottlings. The 2012 Champagne Blanc de Noirs La Côte Aux Enfants Brut is their first release, with approximately 1000 bottles produced, only 70 of which will come into the United States. One hundred percent Pinot Noir, it is rich with incense, bread dough, fully ripe red fruits, and kirsch. The palate is broad and mouth-filling with consistency from the aromatics and has a long, floral finish with blackcurrant, lavender, toast, and a driving mineral texture. Though it is ripe and full, it maintains freshness and energy without feeling bruised and has refreshing salinity. It leaves a wonderful first impression, but this could certainly prove challenging to revisit given its miniscule quantities. Drink 2024-2044.
