    Description of Pierre Paillard Les Mottelettes Grand Cru

    Estate

    The Maison Pierre Paillard is renowned for its authentic expertise in crafting blanc de blancs champagnes. This family-owned estate upholds the Champagne tradition with an environmentally respectful approach, ensuring high-quality wines.

    Vineyard

    Pierre Paillard’s vineyard is located in the Montagne de Reims, an appellation known for its chalky clay-calcareous soils that favor the refined and mineral expression of Chardonnay grown there.

    Wine

    This Pierre Paillard Champagne 2018 is a 100% Chardonnay blanc de blancs, characterized by elegance and freshness. The 2018 vintage brings good concentration and aromatic finesse, reflecting a favorable vintage year in the region.

    Vintage

    The 2018 vintage benefited from contrasting climatic conditions, with a warm summer that enabled optimal grape maturity, producing wines that are balanced with both liveliness and richness.

    Vinification & Aging

    Vinification is carried out with great care to preserve the fruit and terroir purity, without barrel aging, to maintain the aromatic purity of the Chardonnay. Aging on fine lees adds complexity and a delicate texture to this Champagne.

    Grape Variety

    100% Chardonnay

    Characteristics & Tasting

    Tasting

    • Appearance: Pale yellow color with golden highlights and fine, persistent bubbles.
    • Nose: Elegant aromas of white flowers, candied citrus, and a mineral hint typical of the Montagne de Reims terroir.
    • Palate: A lively and fresh attack followed by a nice roundness with ripe white fruit notes and a long, refreshing saline finish.

    Serving

    Serve between 8 and 10°C. Decanting is not necessary; however, letting the bottle breathe for about ten minutes after opening will enhance aromatic expression.

    Food Pairings

    This blanc de blancs champagne pairs well with scallop tartare, green asparagus risotto, pan-seared sea bass fillet, or aged goat cheese.

    Occasions

    Ideal for a sophisticated aperitif, a family celebration meal, or a dinner with friends seeking a refined Champagne experience.

    Aging Potential

    This Champagne can be enjoyed now but will gain complexity and depth over the next 5 to 8 years.
