It was characterised by a cold winter - without being glacial - and a sullen and rainy spring. The harvest began mid-September, in dry and fresh weather, which offered perfect grape growing conditions. These high quality grapes revealed an incredible aromatic richness which would foresee an exceptional vintage. The skill of wine makers, and the passage of time, then contributed to some fabulous champagnes from many houses. As with all special releases, there are only a limited number created - and still available. We have a small selection of 2008, with only a few remaining in most. If you're a collector, or simply a lover of the best in champagne, we urge you to secure one of these before they're gone forever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExplore the year 2008 and get 5% OFF this collection using code VINTAGE5.

These high quality grapes revealed an incredible aromatic richness which would foresee an exceptional vintage. The skill of wine makers, and the passage of time, then contributed to some fabulous champagnes from many houses.\n\nAs with all special releases, there are only a limited number created - and still available.

Cellarmaster Guillaume Roffiaen has paid tribute to the great 2008 Vintage in the creation of this Palmes d'Or. A precision blend designed to enhance the sensory experience, this prestige Cuvee is made from 95% Grand Cru fruit in equal parts Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.Upfront, permeating aromas of apricot, raw almond and a distinctive chalk signature are underpinned by a streak of minerality and acutely delicate smoky finish.This harmonious combination is accentuated with the tropical-style Chardonnays from Montgueux. Golden and translucent with striking amber tones. On the palate, the 2008 Palmes d’Or Champagne is wonderfully rich and amazingly complex, the bubbles forming a lovely stream of effervescence resembling fine pearls. A distinguished and elegant vintage Champagne to be savoured and respected. .

Complex aromas of dried citrus fruit, such as orange and peach with pie crust. Some brioche. White pepper. Full-bodied, dense and layered. Very deep and beautiful. Needs time to come together, but already a beauty.
