Bollinger RD 2008 x 1An old vintage, young disgorged and dosed like an Extra Brut In 1963, Mrs. Bollinger decided, in agreement with the House's American agent, to market a few bottles of "Rserve 1947". It was then a question of "competing with the 'special bottles', the prestigious cuves of the other Champagne Houses. Madame Bollinger's great idea is to choose an old vintage, young disgorged and dosed like an Extra Brut. This recent disgorgement is the guarantee of the

An old vintage, young disgorged and dosed like an Extra Brut

The genesis of a revolutionary idea

In 1960, the general trend was towards "prestige cuvées": high-quality wines, sold at a very high price. Almost everyone does it... but there is no question of the House giving in to the conformity of the market. As it expresses in a commercial circular, Champagne Bollinger believes that "all its wines, because of the quality of its grapes and its traditional manufacturing techniques, are heads of the cuvée". Creating a prestigious cuvée would be tantamount to belittling the other wines of the House, even though they are all made with the same high standards and the same concern for quality.

The Bollinger R.D. experience

An extremely long maturation time, more than four times longer than the rules of the Appellation, to transform the aromas infinitely. A real alchemy of wine. Madame Bollinger's idea is radical, creative and audacious: offered for tasting just after disgorgement, the wine exults in freshness and delivers powerful aromas worked by long vinification in oak barrels. A new taste, an obvious prestige: Bollinger R.D. has no equivalent.

Initials R.D.

In 1967, after some hesitation about the final name of the cuvée, it was finally Bollinger R.D. (Recently Disgorged) that was chosen. Three vintages will be launched simultaneously. The 1952 in the English market, the 1953 in Switzerland and France, and the 1955 in the United States and Italy. It was this vintage, followed by the 1959, that definitively established the cuvée internationally.

The contrast between great freshness and the exceptional aromas of an old vintage

Today, Bollinger R.D., because it is unique in its concept and style, is still a small revolution in the world of Champagne wines

Insightful and True
Format: Paperback
Thank you Tim wise for being a person who understands soooo much about race and discrimination. It is great to see that being color blind is actually dangerous for people of color. As a person of color I hate it when whites assume that because they are nice to me that they aren't racist and yet in their thoughts and comments to their white counter parts they are as racist as hell. What annoys me is that whites operate the system which is designed to fail people of color and elevate those who designed it. But the tides are slowly turning and people are waking up and are finding their voice and courage. I wish them all the best in the world. Thanking you Tim.

Honest
Format: Kindle
I love the book. I think he is honest and courageous for exposing demonic oppression. I had no idea how throughly racist the system is. I have highlighted just about every page. I have even shared qoutes on face book. I really think he could help his people eliminate racism, opression and colorblindness. Thank you Tim!

Solutions to the eradication of subtle racism that still exists in the United States
Format: Kindle
In this book - Colorblind: The Rise of Post-Racial Politics - Tim Wise called out those who are in denial of racism in the era of Obama. He not only gave examples of existence, but also enunciated solutions to tackle it. In fact there are everything to be done both in private capacity as well as public policies. Anyone who is perturbed by the overwhelming racial disparity would find this book very illuminating.
