Don’t see much of this producer posted here. Not sure why but if you haven’t had a bottle of this cuvée, you should one day. Clos De Goisses is their flagship cuvée.

Quite golden in color. Nose of bruised pear, golden apple, pineapple, blood orange, spice, cream, bread dough, caramel, yellow lilies.

The palate is beautiful and layered. Nice body. Has the right amount of neutral wood for me to give it great complexity. Pear, red apple, orange citrus blend, pineapple, blackberries, lime-lemon-grapefruit, limestone & volcanic minerals, razor sharp chalkiness, white spice-ginger & a hot spice, sea fossils, saline, bread dough & baguette crust, caramel notes, cream, white florals, yellow lilies, excellent acidity and a beautifully; balanced, structured, nicely knitted, wire to wire long nicely not overly polished two-minute finish. This will keep getting better and better. Has decades of life.

Photos of my visit to the property just over a year a ago. Top right, a pano of the Cote de Blanc region as seen from the Clos Des Goisses vineyard-the region for Chardonnay in the region. Center photo of the Clos Des Goisses vineyard that grows over their facility from the street (I ate four bunches of unpicked Pinot Noir bunches while in it. All Pinot Noir in Clos Des Goisses. Wasn’t ready three weeks earlier when they picked, but was perfect for my visit. Best fruit I’ve eaten in a vineyard) Clos Des Gosisses sign as you walk up the stairs and barrel branding in their cellar.

Furthermore, this report showcases Champagnes from Champagne Philipponnat, with special reference to the renowned Clos des Goisses and a few of its later releases. I must express my admiration for Phillipponnat's Champagnes; their consistent excellence across vintages attests to their remarkable prowess. Charles Philipponnat consistently produces Champagnes that are pure, crystalline and taut. Notably, he was among the pioneers from the major houses to embrace low dosage levels. — 5 months ago
