"PALMER & CO. was established over seventy years ago in 1947, by seven grower-families with prized
Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards in the Montagne de Reims region of Champagne. The seven families shared a desire for perfection and a vision to create a Champagne house known for its passion for harmony, balance, and the pursuit of excellence. Today, those qualities still define the Champagne Palmer style. Palmer & Co incarnates a natural elegance, without exaggeration or demonstration, an elegance that will last over time and will give rise to emotions."
