Nicolo & Paradis
Beautifully balanced grower Champagne is what all Champagne's want to be when they grow up. Nicolo & Paradis is an excellent example of how time, knowledge and love can produce a glass of champagne that is in perfect harmony! A family business for three generations... founded in 1951 by Henri Nicolo, winemaker David Nicolo's grandfather. David took over the family business in 2011 after studying wine-growing culture and oenology. David expanded his business in 2013 by bringing the house of Champagne Camille PARADIS & Fils into the fold, thus Champagne Nicolo became Nicolo & Paradis.
Champagne, Côte des Bar
The Côte des Bar in the southern part of the Champagne area, is characterized by a warmer climate and a subsoil which predominantly provides good drainage and imparts a particular mineral flavour. The three major features–climate, subsoil and relief–create a mosaic of micro-terroirs affecting the characteristic qualities of the grapes. Pinot Noir is the predominant grape variety on the Côte des Bar where the cool, chalky terrain suits it perfectly.
"Our carefully looked-after vineyard, pride of our House of Champagne"
Champagne Nicolo & Paradis strives to be in harmony with nature paying particular attention to using sustainable methods. Tried and tested approaches from over the years give their wine an amazing depth and keep the vineyards at the heart of the community.
