This sparkling wine displays an intense golden colour with amber highlights and a fine, vibrant and persistent foam. On the nose, it stands out for notes of vine flowers, linden and toasted bread, complemented by summer berries, citrus and honey. On the palate, it offers a refined and fruity entry, with flavours of currant, raspberry and ripe grapes, combined with a generous body. Its finish is long and elegant, with subtle hints of biscuits and freshly baked bread.
Philipponnat Royale Réserve Brut is an exquisite champagne produced in the prestigious AOC Champagne region of France. This creation comes from the historic house of Philipponnat, whose winemaking tradition dates back to the 16th century, when the family supplied wines to the court of King Louis XIV, establishing itself as a benchmark in quality and oenological legacy.
This sparkling wine combines 65% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay and 5% Pinot Meunier, using first-press must from grapes selected mainly from Grand and Premier Cru vineyards. To preserve freshness and add depth, between 20% and 30% of the reserve wines are aged in barrels using a solera system, successfully integrating older wines into a harmonious blend.
Vinification follows traditional methods that avoid premature oxidation, while partial malolactic fermentation and the use of barrels for reserve wines allow the development of a remarkable aromatic complexity. With a moderate dosage of 8 g/litre, this champagne balances freshness, fruitiness and vinosity, respecting the pure character of the wine. Ageing takes place on lees in the historic Philipponnat cellars, at a constant temperature of 12°C for three years, more than double the legal minimum of 15 months, which enhances its richness and complexity.
If you are looking to purchase a wine that combines tradition, innovation and a unique sensory experience, the Philipponnat Royale Réserve Brut is the perfect choice to enhance any celebration or special moment.
