Product Description
Bruno Paillard was born in Reims in 1953. His lineage of brokers and growers in the two Grand Crus villages of Bouzy and Verzenay dates back to 1704. Following in the family’s footsteps, he started working as a broker in 1975, and acquired a deep and extensive knowledge of Champagne. After 6 years, however, he felt the overwhelming desire to create a Champagne of his own; one that would go beyond what was available in terms of purity and elegance. In 1981, at the age of 27, Bruno Paillard sold his car for 15,000 euros and started his Champagne house, the first new Champagne house in nearly a century.
Vibrant straw gold colour, revealing the exclusive use of the first pressing and the large percentage of Chardonnay. Vivid perlage with very delicate bubbles. Fresh and fruity, initial aromas of citrus fruits so typical of Chardonnay: lime and grapefruit. Then aromas of red fruits: redcurrant, raspberry, Morello cherry, typical of Pinot Noir. Finally smooth aromas of candied, even exotic fruits coming from the Pinot Meunier. Vivacious on the palate thanks to a low dosage respecting the authenticity. A chalky minerality, initial notes of citrus fruit, almond, toast… but also redcurrant jelly, cherry, fig or blackberry. Complete without being heavy, with a long, persistent finish.
