Champagne Palmer La Réserve NV Review
Founded 75 years ago in Reims, Champagne Palmer offers a wide range of Champagne expressions that extend from a solera-aged rosé to the Grands Terroirs bottling selected from the house’s top sites. Though you could definitely splurge on a higher-end wine, the La Reserve cuvée is a great option if you’re looking for a budget-friendly bottle. It’s wonderfully crisp and refreshing on the palate with notes of orchard fruit, citrus, and a chalky minerality.
