Champagne Palmer has launched two separate vintages of its premium cuvée Grands Terroirs in several bottle sizes.
These comply with on from the unique launch in 2018 of the very explicit 2003 classic – on the time the earliest and hottest ever harvest in Champagne – which was solely made out there in magnum.
The primary of this new pair, the 2015 classic, is launched in bottle (75cl), whereas the highly-regarded and widely-declared 2012 classic of Grands Terroirs is simply out there in magnum.
Bigger format bottles like this are a selected speciality of this Champagne home, which relies close to the centre of Reims. In deference to the longer ageing which magnums want to succeed in related ranges of maturity to 75cl bottles, they sometimes see two to a few years additional ageing within the cellars earlier than launch.
