Bollinger PN TX20 Blanc de Noirs Brut Champagne
Bollinger's PN TX20 Blanc de Noirs Brut Champagne, elegant yet powerful, 100% Pinot Noir Blanc de Noirs capturing the precision and finesse of Bollinger’s Tauxières terroir. Vibrant citrus and stone fruits open the way for a textured, mineral-rich palate—refined and expressive.
Origins & Craftsmanship
-
Released as the sixth expression in Bollinger’s PN series, PN TX20 is a non-vintage Champagne built around the 2020 base year and enriched with over 25% reserve wines from standout years like 2008 and 2012, enhancing depth and harmonics.
-
Crafted exclusively from Pinot Noir, rooted in the chalky-clay soils of Tauxières in Montagne de Reims—known for imparting elegance, tension, and aromatic complexity.
-
The wine undergoes twice the cellar aging compared to AOC requirements and receives a moderate dosage of 8 g/L, balancing vibrancy with richness.
Tasting Profile
Appearance:
Radiates a luminous golden-yellow sheen with gold flecks.
Aroma:
Bright citrus essence—lemon and fresh peach—blended with quince and delicate white stone fruits, all underpinned by fine mineral and flinty notes.
Palate:
Starts with electric freshness—redcurrant notes give way to plush vinosity, with layers of stewed fruits enriching the core. The finish is long, nuanced, and driven by energy and complexity.
