Another standout producer from last week's tasting in Chicago held by the Champagne Bureau, Bruno Paillard is a new discovery for me, and I find myself wondering how it is I've never tasted it before. Stated on their website, "putting together a wine is very like for a painter carefully choosing the origin of colours" as a trained fine artist and former winemaker, I could not agree more. The Première Cuvée boasts classical lines and multi-faceted beauty, one first notices the extremely fine mousse, followed by razor-sharp minerality, oyster shells and persistent bubbles give way to layers of brioche, citrus, orchard fruit, and more nuanced aromas of raspberries and Queen Anne's cherries As for this author, Bruno Paillard is instantly a new favorite.

Beautiful bead. Smooth, creamy with light hints lemongrass, grapefruit and green apple. Delightful.
