Description
The Grand Blanc cuvée is a remarkable exception in the range of Philipponnat wines, which has made Pinot Noir its signature. It is made with 100% Chardonnay from the villages of Le Mesnil sur Oger, Oger, Vertus, Trépail and Grauves. First press juice from exclusively Grand Cru and Premier Cru plots. The Champagne has been ageing for seven to nine years in order to obtain the greatest complexity of the wine and to bring out the secondary and tertiary aromas, marks of prolonged ageing on lees. The extra-brut dosage (4.25 g/l) help preserving the purity and nobility of its origin.
Tasting Notes :
The Champagne reveals aromas of ripe Mirabelle plum, apricots, wildflowers and honey leading to a delicate, refreshing and
lengthy palate of citrus, mineral and cream character. Enjoy as an apéritif or with quiche and a variety of seafood including butter-poached lobster, fried calamari, ceviche, crab-avocado salad and oysters.
