This Grands Terroirs cuvée is the historic signature of Palmer & Co. It uniquely expresses the quintessence of the Premiers and Grands Crus of the Montagne de Reims in exceptional years.
The year 2015 was perfectly in line with the continental trend of the decade, with a mild, wet winter and a hot, dry summer. Thanks to a cool end to the summer, the grapes ripened to produce juicy, ripe and concentrated grapes, resulting in a spectacular vintage.
Grands Terroirs 2015 is composed of 50% Chardonnay, 38% Pinot Noir and a touch of Meunier at 12%. The grapes come from the Grands Crus of Mailly and Verzenay and the Premiers Crus of Trépail, Villers-Marmery, Ludes, Chigny-les-Roses, and Rilly-la-Montagne. All these terroirs of the Montagne de Reims bring different facets to the wine thanks to their specific characteristics.
The nose is charming and subtle, with notes of orange blossom and acacia mingling with hints of yellow fruit. It then opens up to reveal delicious, delicately spicy aromas of pan-fried pineapple and tonka bean.
The palate is focused on freshness, with citrus notes that enhance the brioche and dried fruit accents. Its creamy texture lingers deliciously on the finish.
This elegant and intense Grands Terroirs 2015 champagne from Palmer & Co will seduce you as an aperitif and can accompany you throughout your meal.
