Description
The names of these three cuvA©es refer to the Philipponnat familyAs ancestors: winemakers and wine merchants, suppliers to Louis XIV, magistrates and royal mayors of Ay, a city directly connected to the Crown. All three are produced from grapes that mainly come from the best vineyards of Premiers and Grands Crus in the heart of the Champagne region, with a majority of Pinot Noir. The wines used in the blending process are obtained from the first pressing and are produced using traditional vinification methods in order to prevent premature oxidation. They are aged in the cellars for three to four years.

To the eye : Deep gold in colour with amber glints. Delicate froth, lively and lingering. To the nose : The first nose reveals vine blossom, linden and fresh, lightly toasted bread. After breathing, aromas of summer berries, citrus fruit and honey develop. To the mouth : Fine vinous attack on the palate, fruity (redcurrant, raspberry, ripe grape) and fullbodied, generous and long. Light notes of biscuit and freshly baked bread on the finish.
