The whites are fermented and aged in barrel. Fermentations start spontaneously and continue at their own pace, sometimes for months.

Round and elegant on the palate, this is a full-bodied, rich, intense, textural, enormously long, complex and saline, stimulatingly precise and tannic Monte Vacano with the power and richness of the Gräfenberg paired with the precision and salinity of the Castellum Montis. It is more hedonistic, although from a cooler year, but very, very long, saline and savory. Definitely a wine made for generations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Robert Weil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48059009728731,"sku":"6489","price":695.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/1251\/5803\/files\/2021-robert-weil-monte-vacano-riesling-9411563.png?v=1765959855"},{"product_id":"2004-laurent-perrier-alexandra-rose-grand-cuvee","title":"2004 Laurent-Perrier Alexandra Rose Grand Cuvee","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e19.5\/20 -  Vinum Wine Magazine\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis iconic rosé was created by Bernard de Nonancourt in 1987 for his daughter Alexandra's wedding.

In fact, it is one of the best recent editions I can remember tasting. What comes through most is the wine’s sizzling energy and tension, qualities that aren’t often associated with Bollinger, where the Champagnes tend to show more breadth and volume. In 2014, readers will find a Grande Année built on linear intensity and drive. The 2014 is a blend taken from 19 villages, 61% Pinot Noir and 39% Chardonnay instead of the more typical 70\/30 mix. For the second time in two decades (the first was 2007), Verzenay takes the lead in the Pinots over Aÿ, more or less an inverse from the norm. Verzenay, a north-facing village in the Montagne de Reims that saw less rain than Aÿ and most of the Vallée de la Marne, yields Pinots of energy more than volume. That, married with Chardonnays mostly from the Côtes des Blancs (predominantly Chouilly, Vertus, Oiry and Cramant), results in a truly magical Grande Année that will delight Champagne fans for several decades. I can’t recommend the 2014 highly enough. It’s a total knock-out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bollinger Champagne","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48080083484891,"sku":"1319","price":795.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/1251\/5803\/files\/2014_Bollinger_La_Grande_Annee_Magnum.jpg?v=1791849823"},{"product_id":"2022-nicole-lamarche-clos-de-vougeot-grand-cru","title":"2022 Nicole Lamarche Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"producer-section__list-of_note\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"metafield-rich_text_field hide-class\"\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverview:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eDomaine Nicole Lamarche is a family-run estate based in Vosne-Romanée in Burgundy’s Côte de Nuits.

The vineyards include holdings in several highly regarded sites, most notably the Grand Cru monopole La Grande Rue, one of Burgundy’s most distinctive single-owner vineyards. The estate also farms parcels in Clos de Vougeot, Echézeaux and Grands Échézeaux.
