La Grande Année Brut 2002 is a stunning edition of one of the great vintage Champagnes that sees immense power and freshness carry the inherent complexity that is the cornerstone of the Bollinger style. This vintage is entirely fermented in oak barrels and is produced from thirteen crus – 95% Grand Cru and 5% Premier Cru. 

Bollinger is more than just a fancy wine brand, and since its inception, the Champagne house has been committed to sustainability and responsible farming. In 2012, the house was the first in France to be certified as “High Environmental Value”. Two years later, it made history again by becoming the first to receive a certification in sustainable viticulture in Champagne.
