Bruno PAILLARD winery arrives to Vietnam

Bruno PAILLARD was born in Reims in 1953 from an old family of Champagne "vignerons" and brokers, established in the Champagne region for more than 3 centuries. He has worked as a Champagne broker from 1980 to 1975. Then, in 1981, he created his own Champagne house. The house of Bruno PAILLARD is the youngest and still one of the smallest Champagne houses.

He owns and runs a high quality vineyard which spreads over 32 hectares, of which 10 deserve the denomination “Grand Cru”. It produces around 550.000 bottles (45.000 cases) - over 75 % are exported to all European countries, America and Asia.

Bruno PAILLARD specialises in the production of M.V. luxury cuvées as well and vintages; its

Champagnes are produced by the traditional method and from the best possible grapes in the Champagne area under the personal supervision of the owner.

 

The Bruno PAILLARD range offers 3 “multi-vintage” Champagnes, plus several single vintage, some of which are now very rare. All of them are ageing for a long time, from 3 to 5 years more than requested by the rules of the Champagne Appellation. They are all "BRUT". (The house does not produce a Sec or Demi-Sec) and the dosage is kept as low as possible in order to respect the authenticity of the wines.

All the different Champagnes from Bruno PAILLARD have received 91 Parker points or more.
