The 2009 Vintage Assemblage from Bruno Paillard is an equal parts blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, 20% of which was barrel-fermented. Due to 10 years maturation and typically low dosage, this wine is ready to drink and already displays seamless waves of delicious stem ginger, citrus and brioche flavours.

The 2009 Extra Brut Assemblage is a gorgeous wine that captures the essence of the vintage in its radiant, open-knit personality. Soft curves and plush, forward fruit add to its considerable allure. Although not especially complex, the 2009 is wonderfully expressive and inviting today. It has enough body and depth to develop nicely for a number of years, but also offers a good bit of freshness as well. This is such a pretty and expressive wine. Hints of dried flowers, pear and spice linger on the pretty finish. Disgorged: September, 2017. Antonio Galloni1st December 2019

Equal parts Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from '10 of the best terroirs in the heart of Champagne'. 20% fermented in barrel. Disgorged September 2017, then 18 months in the Paillard cellars before release. Dosage 5 g/l. Label by Swedish artist Anna-Lisa Unkuri.
Very pale gold. Deep aroma that is toasty and lightly honeyed with notes of tangy citrus, mostly clementine. Full and yeasty in the mouth too, with lees richness balanced by extreme freshness. Fine and persistent mousse that has started to mellow but is still vibrant, like the citrusy acidity. Long and complex but should continue to age well in bottle for some years. Deliciously dry but not austere thanks to the full flavours and that slight honeyed character. (JH)
