Philipponnat's Grand Blanc 2006 is a cuvée of purity and finesse.
Made from Chardonnay from Côte des Blancs and Clos des Goisses, terroirs classified as Premier and Grand Cru.
This is a traditionally vinified champagne, for which malolactic fermentation has been partially carried out to balance freshness and roundness.
Some of the wines were vinified in oak barrels to add a touch of complexity.
The dosage is low (4g/L), preserving the purity and nobility of this cuvée.
