The Story

The Brut Reserve of our Maison is made up of about 50 % of Chardonnay, 40 % of Pinot Noir and 10 % of Pinot Meunier.
The gustative qualities of The Brut Cuvée depend not only on grape varieties coming from 40 different crus; they also result from the wine making and wines’ ages which compose our cuvée. Elaborated from a reference grape harvest (the main note), this accurate assemblage always includes an important part of Reserve Wines (until ...

Written Notes

“Complex, classy toast-lead nose. Plenty of pristine fruit, cream, vanilla, peach, marshmallow and candy. Soft, velvety palate with a fine mousse. Lively, playful, dancing palate with a lovely acid line. Long-lasting, pure, fruity finish. Compact and complete. Perfectly crafted and finely polished. Worth 93p in magnum in a great year such as the 2008 and 2013 based cuvées. ”

Six years on the lees and bottled 2012. Based on 2011. Dosage 7 g/l. L18206. In magnum.
Rounder than the bottle version. Just right now, though with a pretty chewy finish.

Light, green yellow. Fresh, charming, toasty, white fruits. Dry, toasty, delicate, lovely mousse, gentle and smoothly round mouthfeel. Very appealing champagne!

Vinerna är vällagrade efter sina fyra år i källaren och noggrant testade i firmans moderna laboratorium. Palmer har ett ovanligt stort lager äldre årgångar till salu, som degorgeras vid beställning. Vinerna som görs av Jérôme Bouby är lite för opersonliga och kliniska för vår smak. Kanske skulle vinerna få mer karaktär om de inte utsattes för kylstabilisering och dubbel filtrering. På den positiva sidan är att vinerna är skönt rostade och mycket prisvärda. Klassiskt god storhusstil med kakor och rostade trevliga lätta toner och angenäm sötma.
