Palmer & CoDemi-Sec La Réserve, Champagne, Palmer & Co
Champagne, FranceVintage: NV
A Demi-Sec style Champagne is luscious and fresh, offering a true explosion of fruity apricot and pear, combined with tropical touches of mango, caramelised pineapple and nuances of zesty pink grapefruit.
The grands terroirs of the Montagne de Reims are central to Champagne Palmer & Co’s wine philosophy, encompassing over 200 hectares across seven iconic crus, all facing north. The two Premier Crus of Trépail and Villers-Marmery are highly reputed for their Chardonnays with citrus, mineral, and floral notes. The Grand Crus of Verzenay and Mailly are located at the heart of Pinot Noir terroir and produce wine with rich aromas of red fruits, spices, and saline undertones. The Premier Crus of Ludes, Chignyles-Roses, and Rilly-la-Montagne add structure and freshness to both Pinot Noirs and Meuniers. This aromatic diversity enables the oenologists to craft unique blends each year.

Description
Founded in 1947 and historically established in Reims, Palmer & Co is rooted in the greatest terroirs of the Montagne de Reims with over 200 hectares of vineyards classified as Premier and Grand Crus. Dominated by the freshness and purity of Chardonnay, the Palmer & Co style is characterised by its precision and elegance. The significant proportion of reserve wines and the prolonged ageing give it a rare fullness and maturity. Today Palmer & Co is one of the top-quality references of Champagne, renowned for its signature style of aromatic complexity and refinement as well as its innovative approach to blending, sustainable winegrowing, and a long maturing process for both vintage and non-vintage cuvées. Champagne Palmer is certified sustainable by Haute Valeur Environmentale and Sustainable Viticulture in Champagne (VDC).
Cellar master Xavier Berdin skillfully blends varieties, growths and reserve wines with harmony and passion, until the perfect balance is reached: the epitome of the Palmer & Co. style. The grapes were carefully hand-harvested, and vinification took place in the traditional method. In the spirit of a perpetual, true reserve wine, this Chardonnay dominated blend was composed 30 to 35% of reserve wines which imbue it with a unique style and remarkable consistency. This cuvée was matured for three years on the lees in bottle in the 18-metre-deep chalk cellars. With a dosage of 34- 35g/l the Demi-Sec style is balanced by an elegant acidity resulting in a fresh, harmonious style.
