AboutChampagne Palmer & Co
Seven winegrowers founded Champagne Palmer & Co in 1947, bringing their vineyards and experience together. The house draws on more than 220 hectares of Premier and Grand Cru vineyards in the Montagne de Reims. Other grapes come from the Côte de Sézanne, Côte des Bar and Vallée de la Marne.
Cellar master Xavier Berdin blends with wines from previous harvests, drawing on a reserve collection that includes three solera systems. Non-vintage cuvées mature for at least three years, with longer ageing for vintage wines.
Palmer & Co 2015 Grands Terroirs Brut Champagne
French Sparkling
$189.99
Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier form a 50/38/12 blend drawn from Grand Cru and Premier Cru vineyards across the Montagne de Reims. Orange blossom, acacia and yellow fruit accompany fried pineapple and tonka bean. The profile is fresh, with citrus, brioche and dried-fruit notes. The wine has a creamy texture and a persistent finish, and dosage is seven grams per litre.
Champagne Palmer & Co NV Rosé Solera
French Sparkling
$139.99
A pale copper rosé Champagne with gingerbread, spiced apple and pink grapefruit, joined by truffle and a light saline note. The palate is tight, focused and spicy, with salty undertones and very fine bubbles giving the fruit precision. Complex but controlled through the finish, it is an excellent aperitif and a fine match for smoked salmon or charcuterie.
Champagne Palmer & Co NV La Réserve Brut
French Sparkling
$96.99
Citrus, pear and apricot lead with white flowers, clementine and fresh peach. The palate is succulent yet focused, with a creamy mousse and unfettered freshness carrying orchard fruit through the centre. Hazelnut, toasted almond and buttery brioche lend measured richness to the clean, balanced finish.
