Philipponnat

For 5 centuries now, the Philipponnat family has been making its mark on the land of Champagne. The House Philipponnat was founded in 1522 on the lands of Aÿ, where all generations have succeeded one another. Possessing a unique historical and viticultural heritage, it reigns today over a vineyard of 20 hectares classified as Premier Cru and Grand Cru in Aÿ, Mareuil-sur-Aÿ and Avenay.

 The House Philipponnat produces exceptional vintages that express the richness of their terroir, shining with elegance and purity.

What is the history of Maison Philipponnat?

April de Philipponnat was a soldier in the army of François I, and was granted lands in Aÿ by the king as a reward for his exploits at the Battle of Marignan in 1515. The Philipponnats will thus devote themselves over the generations to the elaboration of Champagnes wines, and acquire at the beginning of the XXth century cellars dug in the XVIIIth century in Château of Mareuil, a village classified in Premier Cru. These cellars are still today an exceptional heritage.

In 1997, the House Philipponnat will be acquired by the group of Champagnes Lanson-BCC, but retains its family heritage. Charles Philipponnat is now its general manager.

What is the terroir of Maison Philipponnat?

House Philipponnat operates a 20-hectare vineyard classified as Premier Cru and Grand Cru in Aÿ, Mareuil-sur-Aÿ and Avenay. The vines are worked with the greatest respect for the soil and the environment, in particular by the use of draught horses for the ploughing. The House Philipponnat... See more ...

Description Philipponnat Blanc de Noirs 2016.

This Champagne is a blend of Grands Crus and Premiers Crus, from a single harvest, a single year and a single grape variety, Pinot Noir.

The wines are from the first press and vinification took place in part in wooden casks.

The colour is gold going on golden bronze.

To the nose, double persistence of spicy notes combined with white flowers scents, with a prevalence of acacia flowers.

The taste is an exultation of vinosity and Pinot Noir’s flowers (mainly wild strawberry), while the finish is wide on peppery and spicy notes.

A Champagne with a great potential of ageing for at least 5 to 7 years, in your cool cellar, away from light and laid flat.

To enjoy around 10 to 12°C. Perfect as an aperitif with canapés or with an entrée of grilled fishes or baked fishes with a champagne sauce. Will also fit perfectly with poultry or feathered game.
