2008 Philipponnat Cuvee 1522 Brut Champagne
CRITIC SCORE:
Mainly from Ay (with a bit of Mailly and Oger as well as Cramant) the 2008 Grand Cru Extra Brut 1522 blends 58% Pinot Noir with 42% Chardonnay and opens with a concentrated tropical fruit aroma (pineapples, stone fruits, almonds) but remains precise and chalky as well as spicy on the nose. Full-bodied, fresh and clear on the palate, with nutty and lingering mineral flavors, this is a very complex and firmly structured yet very delicate and expressively mineral Champagne with a long and tight finish. Roughly 50% aged in oak, this bottle was disgorged in March 2018 and will be released in May. Tasted at the domaine in April 2018.
