Only red Pinot Noir grapes are grown for this white Champagne. A number of unique vineyards are specially selected. No fewer than 25 different crus from the best parts of the Champagne region form the basis for this Blanc de Noirs Brut. All grapes are harvested by hand after a long and balanced growing season. Only the finest bunches are harvested and nourish this top-quality Champagne. Upon arrival, the bunches are pressed immediately, without contact with the skins, preserving the bright color. This Champagne then matures for an impressive three years in the Philipponnat cellars. It develops its soft mousse and powerful aromas and flavors. Did you know that each bottle has a disgorgement date printed on it? That's the date the bottle was removed from the cellar—nice, isn't it!
A Champagne for connoisseurs, this Philipponnat Champagne Blanc de Noirs is so full-bodied and powerful. It begins the moment we open the bottle, revealing hints of toast, roasted nuts, citrus fruit, and a touch of smoke. In the glass, it reveals a beautiful golden yellow with a bright finish. Beautiful, fine bubbles swirl through the glass, giving our senses a wonderful sensation. The full aroma is released in the glass, revealing nuances of peach, citrus fruit, hazelnuts, and a touch of freshly baked bread. The palate is full and complex, with deep, citrus, brioche, and smoky notes—a wonderfully complex aroma.
