Champagne Bruno Paillard AVENUE DE CHAMPAGNE 51100 REIMS - FRANCE
Among the most representative wines of Maison Paillard is undoubtedly this Champagne Extra Brut Première Cuvée, an emblem of style. Made from a skilful blend of Pinot Noir (45%), Chardonnay (33%) and Pinot Meunier (22%) grapes, this Champagne is a tribute to 35 crus, selected in the Champagne region. Chalky soils give the wines an unmistakable mineral freshness and a cool climate, perfect for the slow and complete development of the grapes. The Extra Brut indication, then, immediately makes us think of a wine characterised by a low dosage of sugar (less than 6 grams per litre), ideal for allowing the wine to express its authenticity to the full. Première Cuvée comes from the first pressing of the grapes and also includes a small percentage (around 20%) that ferments in oak barrels, giving the wine complexity and depth. Reserve wines from as many as 25 vintages dating back to 1985 are also added to the blend, enriching the finished wine with unique nuances and a balanced structure. Maturation is long and patient: the wine rests for three years on the lees, acquiring body and a refined texture, and then spends at least another five months in the cellar after disgorgement to complete its maturation. To the eye, Première Cuvée has a brilliant straw gold colour, enhanced by a very fine and persistent perlage, a sign of the quality of the raw materials and careful processing. On the nose, citrus notes of lime and grapefruit, typical of Chardonnay, are followed by red fruit aromas such as currant and raspberry, reminiscent of Pinot Noir. With time, the more exotic and slightly candied hints of Pinot Meunier emerge, with hints of pineapple. In the mouth, it is extremely fresh and lively thanks to the low dosage of sugars. Notes of citrus fruits, almonds and toast return, along with the sweetness of currants and black fruits such as cherry, fig and blackberry. The wine's structure is ample but not heavy, with a long, clean and harmonious finish. Perfect with sushi and sashimi, it also goes well with shellfish, such as lobster and crab, and roast poultry.
Bruno Paillard is a maison born from the dream and determination of its founder, succeeding in establishing itself with elegance and originality in the prestigious Champagne universe. The story began in 1975 in Reims, the capital of Champagne, where Bruno Paillard, coming from a family with ancient wine-making roots, decided to follow his own path. After years of experience as a wine broker, his ambition to create a champagne with a unique character led him to sell his Jaguar in order to invest his first funds in the creation of his maison. Paillard cultivates the typical grape varieties of the region: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. Of the 32 hectares owned, 12 are in areas classified as Grand Cru, a symbol of the excellence of the terroir. Respect for the environment and sustainability are the pillars of the company's viticulture, which promotes biodiversity in the vineyards, avoiding the use of herbicides and pesticides. Here, roses planted at the edge of the rows act as a vanguard, providing early warning of diseases that could damage the vines. In the cellar, one of the central moments in the creation of Champagnes is the moment when the cuvées are made. During the months between January and Easter, the team works on the blends, using reserve wines that can date back as far as the 1980s. Each bottle then clearly shows the date of disgorgement. This information allows connoisseurs to know the evolutionary status of the champagne at the time of purchase.
