Cuvée Grand Blanc 2007 is an exceptional champagne made exclusively from Chardonnay from Premiers and Grands Crus (Côte des Blancs, Montagne de Reims, Clos des Goisses). As Pinot Noir is the hallmark of the Maison Philipponnat, this Blanc de Blancs is a unique opportunity to discover a new facet of Champagne expertise. Very pleasant, with incomparable finesse, it is a perfect match for a seafood platter or an aperitif.
The 2007 vintage brought together all the climatic conditions required for good grape ripening. A particularly mild winter, followed by a warm spring, enabled an early and generous harvest.
This is a traditionally vinified champagne, for which malolactic fermentation was partially carried out to balance freshness and roundness.
Part of the wine is vinified in barrels, for added complexity.
Qualified as extra brut, its low dosage (4.25 g/L) preserves its original purity.
Before being offered for sale, the Cuvée Grand Blanc was kept in the Maison's cellars for a period of 7 years, to ensure a highly developed aromatic bouquet.
