How to serve it
Tasting notes
Golden with copper glints and fine bubbles. Rose, cherry and pink grapefruit on the nose. The palate is pure and chalky, with juicy acidity, a saline edge and a long finish of cherry and kumquat. Vinous and structured, yet always precise and dry.
About this wine
Founded in Reims in 1981 by Bruno Paillard and now led by his daughter Alice, this Champagne house builds its style on first-pressing juice only, chalky minerality, elegance and energy.
This Blanc de Noirs is made entirely from first-pressing Pinot Noir grown on the chalk soils of four Grand Cru villages: Verzenay, Mailly, Verzy and Bouzy. Between 15 and 20% of the wine is fermented in oak.
It ages three years on the lees and at least six months after disgorgement, with a light Extra Brut dosage of 3 g/l that lets the purity of the fruit shine.
