  • The Art of Creating Emotions CHAMPAGNE PALMER & CO the ART of CREATING EMOTIONS
    PRESS RELEASES The Art of Creating Emotions CHAMPAGNE PALMER & CO THE ART OF CREATING EMOTIONS For Palmer & Co, the creation of a cuvée is just as much the work of Nature as the work of Man. We combine the different grape varieties, crus, vintages and reserve wines harmoniously and with passion until we obtain the perfect blend, reflecting the intricate work of a master craftsman and a symbol of our House style: balance and elegance. EXCELLENCE FROM ITS VERY CREATION, A SEARCH FOR PERFECTION It started in 1947 as an association of seven well established winegrowers, all owners of premier and grand cru vineyards in the areas of the Montagne de Reims, and all striving for ultimate perfection. The unique style of their wines was rapidly recognised and the Palmer & Co brand, created in 1948, immediately incarnated this spirit of excellence. Since 70 years, being drawn together by our shared respect for the House values (Excellence, Authenticity and Emotions) makes us feel “Palmerian”. Whether referring to the vineyard workers, the creators of our cuvees or our staff dedicated to ensuring that the company operates smoothly and grows steadily, our “Palmerians” in spirit share the same DNA and can all take pride in the solid reputation of the Palmer & Co brand. THE HISTORICAL ROOTS OF THE MONTAGNE DE REIMS Palmer & Co is solidly established on 415 hectares of vineyards, comprising about forty crus, with over 200 hectares classified as Grand and Premier Crus in the Montagne de Reims area. Grapes from the Côte de Sézanne, Côte des Bars and Vallée de la Marne complete our blends, all contributing their specific characteristics.
