A monumental Champagne for charisma, energy, and stylistic rigor. The olfactory profile alternates bright citrus notes with extremely refined mineral and toasty hints.

A display of style that embodies the soul of the Maison.
Philipponnat Mareuil-sur-Aÿ Extra brut 2014
The Philipponnat "Mareuil-sur-Aÿ" Extra Brut 2014 is a monumental work, a tribute to the village where the heart of the Maison beats. This cuvée, produced exclusively from grapes grown in the village's vineyards (famous for being halfway between the finesse of Chardonnay and the power of Pinot Noir), represents the quintessence of the Mareuil terroir. The 2014 vintage, characterized by a cool summer and a radiant September, yielded wines of extreme verticality and crystalline aromatic purity. On the nose, it is a concert of rare elegance: clear notes of Bramley apple, grapefruit peel, and small white flowers mingle with deep hints of toasted bread, ginger, white pepper, and a mineral streak recalling flint and the purest chalk. On the palate, it is sumptuous and three-dimensional;The entrance is direct and vibrant, dominated by a dense yet incredibly agile body, with a noble bubble that accompanies a savory structure and stretches toward an endless finish with an interminable aromatic persistence, characterized by an aristocratic balsamic freshness.
