An iconic Champagne in an exceptional bottle, the quintessence of the Nicolas Feuillatte style, from the 10/10 2008 Vintage. The faceted bottle, reminiscent of strings of pearls is presented in an elegant box, accompanied by a small booklet, a poetic anthology. Palmes d'Or 2008 is vibrant, rich and complex. 2008 was the coolest vintage of the century and the long ageing of 10 years in the Cellar has allowed it to gain in aromatic intensity. This exceptional vintage is one of patience and slow ageing. built for the future. Remarkable. A pure gem.

What to Expect

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.
