Description
| Notes | |||
| "The golden straw colour reveals a high presence of chardonnay and the exclusive use of the first pressing. The fine bubbles are due to a strict selection of the best grapes, perfectly controlled temperature in the cellar and very long ageing. The primary aromas reveal the citrus fruits of Chardonnay: lime and grapefruit. Then the red fruits aromas of Pinot Noir appear: redcurrant, raspberry, morello cherries. When left to open up in the glass, the wine shows hints of dried fruits, sometimes exotic, from Pinot Meunier. Lively and vivacious on the palate, thanks to a low dosage, the aromas on the nose are echoed in the mouth. Primary flavours of citrus, almonds, and toasted bread, very soon joined by redcurrant jelly but also dark fruits like cherry, fig and blackberry. Whilst the wine opens up in the glass, and gets warmer, it expresses light plum and pear flavours. The palate is full, quite long with a very clean finish." —winemaker Blend: 45% Pinot Noir, 33% Chardonnay, 22% Pinot Meunier |

| "Bruno Paillard's NV Brut Première Cuvée is absolutely delicious. Subtle hints of yellow orchard fruit, pastry and dried flowers grace the palate. Understated and gracious, with fine bubbles and exceptional balance, the Première Cuvée is a classic Bruno Paillard Champagne that emphasizes finesse over all else." —Antonio Galloni, Vinous "Firm and focused, this lively Champagne is finely knit and elegant overall, offering flavors of Gala apple, pickled ginger, blackberry and toasted almond, with a hint of fleur de sel on the finish." —Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator |
