Tasting Notes

Established in 1899, Champagne Pannier is a well-established high-quality producer already in 50 countries around the world, and United Cellars are so excited to be their exclusive partner in Australia.

They mature their wines in amazing 2km of limestone cellars that were carved over 200 years between the 12th to 14th Century. Their house symbol is an archer, after a 14th century carving found in their cellar, carved during the Hundred Years' War.

Despite winning awards and medals as well as some 90+ point scores, this House produces some of the most affordable Champagnes in Australia, whilst never compromising on quality.

This Vintage 2018 is a blend of 45% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir, 20% Pinot Meunier. The wines of this preponderantly warm, dry year are finely balanced, structured, fresh, concentrated and meant for long ageing. A vintage similar to the spectacular 2002 in terms of ripeness and quality of fruit. A vintage year for all - with some growers claiming that 2018 is the best vintage since 1947.

Critic Scores

2018 is proving to be one of the great vintages for the Champagne region. This blend is 45% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir and 20% Meunier. The team note that there are claims by growers in the region that 2018 is the finest vintage since 1947. That is something for late night debates, but personally, I'm not sure that it can top vintages like 1961, 1988 or 2008, but that hardly matters. The mere fact it is in the conversation confirms just what a stellar year it is. Lemon/bronze in colour, the nose gives us notes of spices, a touch of brioche, florals, oystershells and lemon curd. Generously flavoured, there is balance, good focus, lovely length and a creamy texture. This will drink beautifully for the next decade at least. Much to like here.
