The Pierre Paillard Les Parcelles Grand Cru Verzenay 2019 is a vintage, low-dosage Champagne sourced exclusively from the Grand Cru village of Verzenay in the Montagne de Reims. The 2019 vintage delivered concentrated, powerful fruit, resulting in a wine of notable structure and vinous depth. This expression is tightly focused and mineral-driven, presenting notes of white flowers, lemon curd and brioche, with a full texture and a persistent, chalky finish that vividly expresses the power and tension of Verzenay`s northern slopes.

Among the most compelling wines in Paillard`s cellar this year, the 2019 Verzenay Grand Cru is sourced from two lieux-dits in north-facing slopes—vineyards that, as Antoine Paillard notes, are the last they harvest. Structured yet focused, it unites the cool personality of its exposition with the maturity of the vintage, offering up notes of pear, orange zest and dried apricot, mingling with sweet citrus fruit. On the palate, it’s medium to full-bodied, ample and concentrated, laden with tangy acidity and with bitter structuring phenolics that assert themselves on the long, saline finish. Compared to Bouzy’s typically more expansive bottlings, this is notably more controlled. It was disgorged in December 2023 with a dosage of two grams per liter. - Kristaps Karklins

The 2019 Extra Brut Verzenay Grand Cru Vieilles Vignes Pinot Noir is open-knit and caressing. Dried pear, ginger, mint, chamomile, lemon confit and light oak inflections grace the palate. This is an especially soft style for Verzenay. I would prefer to see a bit more Verzenay energy and vintage 2019 depth, but this is still an attractive Champagne. Dosage is 2 grams per liter. Disgorged: December 2023. Antonio Galloni30th December 2025
