Description

Bruno Paillard Blanc de Blancs Reserve Privee Grand Cru (75cl)

This Champagne is made from 100% Chardonnay (hence the name 'Blanc de Blancs' meaning white of whites).
It has ripe fruit, rich and elegant with toasty oak and nutty notes.

It is fresh and bright on the nose with green apple, citrus and white flower aromas. The palate is delicate and light with a gentle mousse supporting the citrus white peach, almond and brioche flavours.

Background Information:

The Bruno Paillard style is a marriage of elegance and complexity which is manifested as a light and smooth effervescence, a remarkable purity, a true freshness and a silky texture.

The effervescence has to be delicate. The bubbles are very tiny, almost microscopic, yet they are what release the wine's aromas and give it a smooth and creamy texture on the palate.

The colour has to be completely natural. It is bright: green gold for Blanc de Blancs, golden for Première Cuvée and copper for Rosé. The colour of the vintages becomes deeper, and almost amber after several decades.

The aromas have to be extremely pure: nuances of citrus fruits and almonds from Chardonnay; red fruits from Pinot Noir; and exotic fruits from Pinot Meunier. By using only the first pressing of the grapes, we ensure that the purest aromas are extracted.

The freshness has to be perceptible but not overwhelming. It is enhanced by the acidity of the wine, yet the wine is not acidic in taste. Only a minimum of extra sugar is added ("dosage") to enhance this remarkable freshness.

Complexity must not be confused with heaviness rather, it is more about elegance. The balance and the depth of the wines are what gives them their purity. Complexity only reveals itself to those who take time to discover, emerging as the wines age.
