Pierre Paillard is one of those grower Champagne producers that insiders always mention, and this bottle—La Grande Récolte 2012—is their crown jewel. Made from all Grand Cru Bouzy fruit, it’s a Pinot Noir–driven blend aged a full decade on the lees before release. The result? Deep, toasty complexity with bone-dry finesse.

You get roasted hazelnuts, ripe orchard fruit, and a whisper of red berries from the Pinot, all wrapped in fine bubbles and a salty chalk finish. It's Extra Brut, so it’s refreshingly dry—but thanks to the long aging, it still feels rich and creamy.

This is Champagne for lovers of nuance and texture. Pair it with everything from roast chicken to lobster to nothing at all—because sometimes, you just need a really good glass of bubbles that knows what it’s doing.

More about Pierre Paillard

Bouzy's true specialist since 1768. Eight generations of Paillards have focused exclusively on the Grand Cru terroir of Bouzy, and brothers Antoine and Quentin (now in charge) farm organically while using low-temperature fermentation and minimal dosage to preserve freshness. They've since expanded to Ambonnay, Verzy, and Verzenay—always chasing the same goal: pure terroir in a bottle.

Champagne

Champagne boasts some of the world’s greatest luxury brands with Krug, Cristal and, of course, Dom Perignon. But it’s also home to hundreds of small dynamic producers—farmers who grow their own grapes (often organically) and make (often with natural methods) tiny amounts of pure and absolutely delicious wine that reflect the individual personalities of their villages and terroirs. Toast with these wines, for sure. But also treat them like the great wines they are: taste, drink, explore!
