From Palmer & Co, a distinguished cooperative in Champagne's heart, the Brut Réserve NV is an elegant blend of approximately 50% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir, and 20% Meunier, sourced from Premier and Grand Cru vineyards across the Montagne de Reims and Côte des Blancs on chalky soils. Grapes undergo gentle pressing and primary fermentation in stainless steel tanks, followed by secondary fermentation in bottle via the traditional method, with extended lees aging of at least 4 years to enhance complexity and texture. Sustainable practices and a carefully calibrated dosage highlight the blend's harmony, yielding a pale golden sparkling wine with vibrant mousse and timeless sophistication.
Tasting Notes A refined, balanced sparkling with crisp apple and toasty elegance, reflecting Champagne's classic finesse. The nose unveils green apple, lemon zest, white peach, and hints of brioche and chalky minerality. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and harmonious, with lively acidity, creamy mousse, and flavors of citrus, orchard fruit, and subtle hazelnut, leading to a precise, refreshing finish.
Awards and Accolades The NV Brut Réserve earned 92 points from James Suckling for its vibrant fruit and elegant structure, and 91 points from Robert Parker for its creamy texture and finesse.
Serving and Cellaring Serve chilled at 8-10°C without decanting to preserve effervescence. Ideal as an aperitif or paired with seafood, sushi, or soft cheeses. Enjoy now through 2030, during which it will develop enhanced toasty and nutty complexity.
