The founders bought its current cellars from a failing Champagne House in Reims in 1959. Over the years, the cooperative has spread past Reims and now owns an impressive 450 hectares of vineyards, over 200 of which are classified Grand and Premier Crus. A large percentage of Palmer’s vineyards are in the Montagne de Reims giving Palmer a unique source of chardonnay in these cooler aspect locations, Blanc de Blancs being one of the stars in the Palmer portfolio. Palmer are one of few producers to ferment large formats, everything bigger than Jeroboam, in the final bottle and up to Nebuchadnezzar, 15 litres, are made in this way.rrPalmer \u0026amp; Co Collection champagnes are a prestigious collection of vintage champagnes, stored perfectly in their 18-meter-deep chalk cellars. Palmer Blanc de Blancs is created from Chardonnay grapes sources mainly from the magnificent terroirs of Villers-Marmery and Trépail. The fruits from these two terroirs are blended with Chardonnay from Côte de Sézanne. The cuvées have been selected by cellar master Xavier Berdin and Palmer’s four oenologists for their superior quality and ageing potential and have been ageing on their lees until being recently disgorged. The Collection Range include some of the best vintages of the last 40 years: 1998, 1996, 1988, 1981, 1979 \u0026amp; 1976.rrThe bottles, magnums, and larger formats, are stored upside down in our cellars for twenty years or more. The very long ageing process gives an intense and complex character to these great wines while at the same time ensuring that they remain remarkably fresh to the palate.rrPalmer ID: | Each bottle of Palmer \u0026amp; Co can be identified by the ID on the back label, using the Palmer App or on the Palmer \u0026amp; Co website.rrWeather: Spring began well with excellent growth showing by the end of April beginning of May and flowering in early June. Rainfall in July was four times higher than average and a hailstorm hit, destroying many vines but August was sunny and dry. The wet weather though meant vines were slow to and acidity was low by end of August but good weather throughout September helped ripen the fruit more fully. The vintage started in mid-September and the sun shone for the duration of the picking which lasted two weeks, and the harvest remained of remarkable quality from beginning to end. After two harvests in 1998 and 1999 with impressive and spectacular volumes, the 2000 harvest is in the same vein.rrTechnical Information:rVineyards: 85% Premier Cru: Montagne de Reims, Trepail \u0026amp; Villers-Marmery | 15% Other Cru: Côte de SézannerGrape Varieties: 100% ChardonnayrLees ageing: 20 yearsrDosage: 7.5 g\/lrDisgorged: 2021rDrink: Now to 2030rrTasting Note: The extremely rich nose offers fruity aromas of citrus and yellow fruits to which are added delicate floral notes that complete the fragrance of pastries.
