Champagne Pierre Paillard has tended ideally situated vineyards in the Grand Cru village of Bouzy since 1768, and today the 8th-generation brothers Antoine and Quentin are pushing the historic estate to new heights - organic since 2020, with a winery philosophy built around freshness (low-temperature fermentations, steel tanks, very low dosage, patient lees aging). Bouzy is one of the few corners of Champagne almost as famous for its still red Pinot Noir as for its bubbles, and the Paillards are among a small handful of true Bouzy specialists. Les Terres Roses is their Grand Cru rosé: Chardonnay-led with a kiss of Bouzy red, sensuous, sun-kissed, with the chalky cut that keeps everything honest.

"Paillard's NV Bouzy Grand Cru Les Terres Roses XIX, a rosé Champagne composed of 64% Chardonnay and 36% Pinot Noir, includes 6% red wine (from 2018) sourced from the lieu-dit Les Mignottes in Bouzy. Based on the 2019 vintage, it was disgorged in May 2023 without dosage (though it retains 1.5 grams of residual sugar). The wine wafts from the glass with a beautiful bouquet of wild strawberry, red apple, cowberry and brioche. On the palate, it's full-bodied, pillowy and textural, with a crisp core of red fruit, succulent but racy acidity and gently phenolic grip, concluding with a precise, lingering finish." —Kristaps Karklins

More about Pierre Paillard

Bouzy is probably the best village name in all of winedom. And when we talk about it we get to say thing like, "Pierre Paillard is a true Bouzy specialist." What could be better than that? Well, fortunately, the wines!

We've featured lots of great Blanc de Blancs Champagnes from the Côte des Blancs, but fewer of Champagnes great Pinot Noir terroirs, like the stunning villages of Ambonnay and Bouzy, which are a mere 700 yards apart on the same slope. Ambonnay is probably the more famous, thanks to Krug's Clos d'Ambonnay. But the Pinot Noir grown in Bouzy is so magical and pure that it's one of the few parts of Champagne that is almost as famous for its still red wine as for its bubbles.

As we said, Pierre Paillard is one of the few true Bouzy specialists. He has about 11 hectares there, mostly Pinot Noir. He farms organically and takes a very classic approach in the winery with the principal aim of promoting freshness: low temperature fermentations, steel tanks, and very low dosage.

The wines therefore have good snap, but with more Pinot than Chardonnay they aren't the taut, chalky things you find further south. Instead, you get sensuousness—even lustiness!—and that mysterious earthy flavor that even hard-core Burgundy fans just can't quite put a finger on.

Paillard is patient and he takes his time aging and releasing his wine. Even the basic "Brut" is made from grapes picked 5+ years ago.
