Heiner Lobenberg über:
Champagne R.D. Extra Brut 2008

100
/100

Lobenberg: Der R.D besteht zu einem Großteil aus Grand Cru Lagen und einem geringen Anteil Premier Crus. Die eigentliche Besonderheit ist aber die lange Reifezeit, die der Champagner auf der Flasche verbringt. Ein hochnobler Champagner, der pure Eleganz verströmt und enormen Tiefgang besitzt. Riecht nach frischem Brioche, etwas Karamell, Macadamianuss. Bleibt aber immer frisch und lebendig. Ein äußerst fülliger Champagner mit reifen Noten aber knackiger Säure, vor allem aus dem Topjahr 2008, das ja heute schon kultig ist und für die Ewigkeit gebaut. Eine der feinsten Prestige-Cuvées. Kann übrigens enorm auf der Flasche reifen und verbessert sich permanent über die nächsten Jahrzehnte! 100/100

Suckling über: Champagne R.D. Extra Brut

-- Suckling: Amazing aromas of sweet uncooked pie crust with almonds. Then you smell dried apples, apricots and pineapple. Grilled fruits, too. Full-bodied. So tangy and energetic with sizzling acidity and creamy tannins. Flavorful and lightly oxidized at the finish. Smacking my lips. Agile. Ginger and spices. A touch of bitter complexity with some salinity. Extreme character that grabs your attention. 13 years and six months aging on the lees with cork. 3 grams dosage. 71% pinot noir and 29% chardonnay. Don’t serve too cold. Drink or hold. 99/100

Parker über: Champagne R.D. Extra Brut

-- Parker: When I was tasting Bollinger's brilliant Grande Année in this vintage, I was trying to imagine how good the 2008 Extra-Brut R. D. would be, as the style of the vintage seems almost perfectly adapted to this cuvée. Four years later, we have the answer, and the wine is brilliant. Disgorged in 2022, it's more reserved out of the gates than the dramatic Grande Année was on release, unwinding in the glass with notes of crisp orchard fruit, orange peel, freshly baked bread, subtle hints of fino sherry, wet stones and macadamia nut. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, with a deep core of fruit that's animated by racy acids and a refined pinpoint mousse, concluding with a bone-dry finish. Extremely harmonious and full of youthful energy, it's the finest R. D. of the decade and one that will richly reward a bit of additional age on cork. In style, the most obvious comparison is with the 1996, but the 2008 is more integrated and harmonious on release. These bottles were disgorged late last year with three grams per liter dosage. 98+/100

Lisa Perrotti Brown über: Champagne R.D. Extra Brut

-- Lisa Perrotti Brown: Emerging like a genie from a bottle, so full of life and magic, the Bollinger R.D. 2008 unwinds gradually to reveal aromatic layer after layer of white peach, Meyer lemon confit, kumquat, wafer cookies, wet stones and acacia honey intermingling with bready and faintly oxidative, nutty notes. Medium to full-bodied and full of high-toned energy, the palate is wonderfully silky and lithe with a super fine, creamy mousse full of stimulating acid freshness, exquisite saline intensity, and a chalky finish with a beautiful citrus peel note. A blend of 66% Pinot Noir and 34% Chardonnay, it was disgorged 09 December 2022 and finished Extra Brut with a three gram per liter dosage. As beautiful as it is now, it has many years of excellent drinking ahead. 98+/100

Jeb Dunnuck über: Champagne R.D. Extra Brut

-- Jeb Dunnuck: The 2008 Champagne R.D. Extra Brut is chiseled, powerful, and packaged with a chalky mineral texture. Made from 70% Pinot Noir and the rest Chardonnay, with 3 grams per liter dosage, it pours a bright straw yellow hue, while its aromatics are more mineral-tinged and feel a touch more noble and upright in character. Aromatically, it opens to notes of toasted almond, preserved Meyer lemon, brothy saline, and vibrant fresh fruit. Displaying tension and grace, it has the richness of Bollinger but is more upright, with an electric mineral energy that courses through the finish, which lasts for days. Mouthwatering and long, it’s a stunner. It needs more time to harmonize all its components, but this is a wine to cellar for the ages, and I think this is going to be a vintage of RD we talk about for a very, very long time. Cellar it if you can and drink 2026-2056. Disgorged December 2022. 98/100
