"The nose, amazingly clean, is expressed through a rich palette of aromas,including citrus, pear and apricot, wild strawberries and cherries with some subtle notes of hazelnut and a discreet touch of buttery brioche supported by cinnamon and spice. Perfumed and elegance personified." - Paradox Wines, Importers
"With the lion's share of Palmer's 350 growers' vineyards being located on the Montagne de Reims, its fruit forms the core of this broad blend. The rest of the grapes come from Côte de Sézanne and Côte des Bar. Bright lemon in colour, with some depth. The overall note is charmingly, sweetly fruity, with an impeccable ground coffee tone adding layers. A complex mix of yellow and red fruit, but there is also a dark spiciness giving an element of interest. The palate is generous, with an age-mellowed velvety texture. However, the overall feeling remains light due to a super-stylish acid line. A remarkable-value non-vintage in an age-complexed, radiantly fruity and luxuriously toasty style. Dosage 6.5g/l”almer & Co is a shining star in Champagne, in keeping with the cellar philosophy,Palmer has time, the wines are aged for an exceptional long time.” - 92 Points, Essi Avellan MW
