TASTING NOTES

Palmer & Co Brut Reserve was crowned World Champion Brut NV at the CSWWC 2020.   A rich palette of aromas, including citrus, pear and apricot with some subtle notes of hazelnut and a discreet touch of buttery brioche.  Succulent and substantial to the palate, yet with an unfettered freshness, this wine is eminently seductive: a model of perfect balance.

The flagship wine of Palmer & Co, crafted from a selection of the most prestigious terroirs in Champagne. The Premier and Grand Crus from the Montagne de Reims predominate, leaving their distinctive marks. A significant proportion or reserve wines contributes a rare fullness and maturity. The timeless signature of the Champagne Palmer style, Brut Reserve distinguishes itself first and foremost for its remarkable finesse and elegance.

Producer

Palmer & Co. have been making noteworthy and elegant Champagne since 1947. They began as seven winegrowers, who came together with a shared vision and passion for making ultra-premium wine; now, they grow grapes over 415 ha of vineyards, of which 200ha encompass 40 crus in the Montage de Reims. The rest of their grapes are grown across the Côte de Sézanne, the Côte des Bar and the Marne Valley, this patchwork of terroirs helping Palmer to achieve wonderful balance.

Expression of a very special art combining technical precision with harmony, the Palmer & Co style is characterised by its elegance and balance. It is expressed fully after a long maturing period in their chalk cellars 18 metres below the ground. Dominated by the freshness and purity of its Chardonnays, the Palmer & Co style is seductive through its precision and clarity. The grace and power of the Pinot Noir, the generosity of the Pinot Meunier and the significant contribution made by reserve wines confer a rich fullness and rare maturity.
