This Champagne house has bee established in the village of Bouzy (in the subregion of Montagne de Reims) for 200 years. Today, it is maintained by brothers Antoine and Quentin Paillard, who represent the eighth generation of the family.
The house owns 11 hectares in Bouzy. Les Parcelles is a rare expression of a single cru village. The vineyards is planted 60% Pinot Noir 40% Chardonnay grapes and it spends 4 years in bottle on lees before disgorgement.
I was incorrect in the video that this is a vintage champagne. This is actually quite confusing because it is not a vintage champagne even though it says "XVII" on the bottle. The champagne is based on the 2017 vintage (70%), and is a mix of 70/30 pinot noir / chardonnay. It was disgorged in June 2020 after 4 years on lees, and with less than 1.8 g/l dosage, it is a extra brut (very dry) champagne.
