Enjoy it now, or cellar for up to 10 years. No need to decant before serving.
Paul Bara’s Grand Cru Champagnes are largely based on Pinot Noir, which grows in the village of Bouzy. This Brut Reserve is no exception, containing just 15% Chardonnay. It opens with a vinous nose of raspberry, lemon zest, and wild flowers – compelling and elegant, with hints of mint and freshly cut grass.
The Bara family property, which still serves as the base of operations for the family’s winemaking, was built in the 1860s. The family has an incredibly long history in the region, but it was not until the 1950s that Paul Bara began selling wine under the family name. Today, the winery is run by his daughter, Chantale, the face of the winery, and the driving force behind its modern renovations.
On the palate, the Brut Reserve boasts a fine perlage, with sharp flavours of lemon zest, strawberry, and lime. As it opens up, you can also discover creamy hints of brioche, thanks to a long stretch of time spent ageing on the lees. Well-integrated acidity accentuates its mineral elements, which make it a perfect companion for seafood. You can also consider using it as an aperitif for special occasions, or to compliment a plate of soft cheeses.

Champagne Paul Bara Grand Cru Brut Reserve
overall i had a positive experience, they have a wide range of wines, some which are hard to find anywhere else - the main reason i still buy from them, plus the discounts are fair and often, but... their codes for the first offer only works at the first offer, which if fine, but then why would you send me the voucher in each package i order, why spam me on the email and every time i log in on the website? this is really bothering me... then their rewards points system is useless, first of all because you only get peanuts even after spending €250 on an order, but even those peanuts will expire if you won't order again soon, which is unfair, to say the least... and lastly, if you get a corked wine, a wine with any deffect or a wine that leaked (my last order contained a bottle of $100 Caymus Cabernet with a leaking cork, which made the wine tasted cooked and flat), they have no procedure put in place for you to replace or return the wine or to get a refund or replacement - none, which is a big no no no for any wine collector... so all in all i give it 3 stars for now
