Philipponnat Clos des Goisses 2014 - Champagnes Millésimés
PhilipponnatDescription
The 2014 Clos des Goisses Extra-Brut from Philipponnat is an exceptional Champagne, made from the best terroirs of the Montagne de Reims, in particular the south-facing Mareuil-sur-Ay hillside. This is a powerful, complex cuvée, 71% Pinot Noir and 29% Chardonnay, vinified for the most part in wood. Clos des Goisses does not undergo malolactic fermentation, which pRéserve contributes to its freshness and great ageing potential. After ageing for at least eight years, this cuvée is blended to Extra brut (4.25 g/l) to bring out the minerality and purity of the terroir. La robe is beautifully golden, with aromas of yellow fruits such as mirabelle plum and plum, accompanied by floral notes of vine flower and acacia blossom. On the palate, the wine is fruity and mineral, with an enveloping texture and a saline finish, typical of this unique terroir. This Champagne lends itself perfectly to high-quality gastronomic pairings, such as game, truffles, caviar or soft cheeses. It can also be paired with shellfish and white meats in its youth. Thanks to its exceptional structure, it can be kept for several decades, improving with age.
