Champagne Cuvée 1522 Rose Brut Philipponnat 2009 with box

Champagne AOC Cuvée 1522 Rosé Brut is produced by the French winery Philipponnat . It is the fruit of a blend that includes Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes. The two vines are grown respectively in the plots of Leon d'Ay and Verzy. These are fine crus, where the soil and climatic conditions and the composition of the soil allow the vines to develop optimally. Once fully ripe, the healthiest bunches are harvested strictly by hand and taken to the cellar for alcoholic fermentation. Approximately 10% of Pinot Noir vinified in red is added to the cuvée to obtain the rosé colour. In line with the Champenoise Method, the wine then ages on its lees during refermentation in the bottle for eight years. A small amount of liquer d'expédition is added during disgorgement. Excellent immediately, Champagne AOC Cuvée 1522 Rosé Brut manages to pleasantly surprise even after a few years.
