Champagne Philipponnat - Blanc de Noirs Extra-Brut Millésime 2016

 

Guide VERON des Champagnes 2024
(around 69 euros per bottle)

Aspect

Gold, dense and brilliant.

Nose

The Pinot Noir, selected in 2016 in the most beautiful plots of the house, in the Grand Cru of Verzy and the Premier Cru of Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, is revealed with its fragrances of red and black fruits coupled with subtle woody notes thanks to the vinification of a part of the base wines in wood, without malolactic fermentation.

Palate

The bright tension, obtained by the selection of the first juices during the pressing of the grapes and reinforced by the adjusted dosage, gives way to the generosity, result of 5 years of ageing on laths of the bottles, before disgorgement.

With this Blanc de Noirs Extra-Brut Millésime 2016, Thierry Garnier, cellar master of the Champagne house Philipponnat, signs a heady interpretation of the Pinot Noir.
