Champagne Bruno Paillard Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru NV
Champagne, FranceThe Bruno Paillard Blanc de Blancs is born from 36 blocks of Grand Cru Chardonnay inside the Côtes des Blancs. The effervescence is lighter than in other champagnes, thanks to a Bruno Paillard-specific bottle fermentation technique. During the bottling before the second fermentation, they use less added yeast than the Champagne standard, creating a slightly lower finished pressure. As a result, an added delicacy and creaminess seem to absorb and show off its refined flavours of lime and almonds dusted in salinity. I love the minerality and finesse that flows throughout this bubble. Well worth the money.Tasted: 28 October 2022Tasted by: Prices:BC | $127.00 | 750ml | select private retailers |
