The Making of Bruno Paillard Assemblage 2015 Champagne

The Assemblage 2015 vintage from Bruno Paillard is made from grapes sourced from Grands and Premiers Crus. Composed of 58% Pinot Noir and 42% Chardonnay, it captures the essence of the 2015 vintage, a year marked by contrasting weather. After a mild and rainy winter, a long period of near-drought accompanied the vine from May to early August. The flowering, observed in early June, gave way to a period of accelerated maturity thanks to a return of rain in mid-August, followed by dry weather in early September. The harvest, spanning from September 2 to 18, gave birth to grapes of exceptional quality.

This champagne is made from the first press, the purest, with 25% of the blend aged in small old oak barrels. This passage of part of the wines under wood brings a touch of complexity and maturity to the blend. Aging for 7 years in the cellar, including a minimum of 18 months of rest after disgorgement, allows the wine to develop great expressiveness and beautiful tonicity. The Extra-Brut dosage, at 4.5g/L, highlights the purity of the Assemblage 2015.

This solar vintage has given birth to a wine combining density and power, carried by an energetic structure. The label of this vintage was entrusted to the artist Gérard Titus-Carmel, under the theme « Élan ». His work, often organized in suites and series, explores themes such as light, shadow, and color saturation. Gérard Titus-Carmel has participated in numerous prestigious exhibitions, representing France at international events, such as the Venice Biennale and the Guggenheim Museum in New York.
