Bruno Paillard Blanc de Blancs Liberte 2013

Maison Bruno Paillard is an independent family Champagne house founded in Reims in 1981 by Bruno Paillard. Blanc de Blancs Liberte 2013 carries a strong release identity built around vintage, grape and maturation. The wine is the 2013 vintage and Chardonnay is identified for the release. Lees ageing is recorded at 84 months, equivalent to seven years. That seven-year figure is the most distinctive production fact attached to the bottle. It gives the release a precise maturation reference and should remain tied specifically to the 2013 vintage. The year is equally important. Blanc de Blancs Liberte is a named cuvée, but 2013 fixes this bottle to one exact release rather than a general family description. Chardonnay supplies the grape-level identity. No percentage is attached in the governed claims, so the correct statement is that Chardonnay is identified for the wine without converting that into an additional numerical blend claim. For a buyer or collector, the practical coordinates are Bruno Paillard Blanc de Blancs Liberte, 2013, Chardonnay, 84 months on the lees. Those facts make the wine easy to distinguish from another vintage or another Bruno Paillard cuvée. The house’s relatively modern Reims history gives the producer context, while the 2013 release stands on its own through exact chronology and maturation. The combination of a clear vintage and seven years of lees ageing makes this bottle especially precise without relying on broad prestige language.
