Paul Bara Grand Millesime Grand Cru Brut 2014
Proprietary Blends | France
$64.95 $93.00 - 750mL
Quite simply, Paul Bara epitomizes all that is wonderful about old world, hand-crafted Champagne, and a true “grower” Champagne before that was even a thing. First brought to the attention of Americans by beloved importer Kermit Lynch, the house has quickly become THE house in the Bouzy region. We are thrilled to have scored a small parcel at this superb price -- if you’re not already putting some in your cart, that is!
If you know, you know, as they say - this is a wine to stock up on for the future and one to enjoy now (we are!). It’s got that beautiful, fine-crafted texture, subtle spices, terrific balance and sense of place. Happy Holidays, indeed!
PAIRING IDEAS: We love this wine with smoky/salty ham. We often get a good heritage ham and put it in the smoker for an extra kick, and make a mustard-y sauce with a bit of bubbly or Riesling in the sauce. With potatoes and sides, it’s killer!
MUSIC SUGGESTIONS: Check out the 2020 album called “Rare Changes” by Mayer Hawthorne -- pretty cool vibe and fun bubbly music!

Reviews
Vinous
Candied apricot, dried flowers, chamomile and spice give the 2014 Brut Grand Millésime a real sense of exoticism that is impossible to miss. Ample and creamy, the 2014 possesses terrific resonance and plenty of depth, all in a style that can be enjoyed with minimal, if any, cellaring. Disgorged: July, 2019.
