Philipponnat - Clos des Goisses Brut Champagne 2007

Partial vinification in wooden barrels (50%) leads to more complexity, without premature oxidation. There is no malolactic fermentation,which enables the wine's natural acidity to compensate the powerful character of the terroir. Aged for 8 to 10 years at a constant temperature of 12°C in the House's historic cellars in Mareuil-sur-Ay. The very low dosage (4.25 g/litre) gives full expression to the vinosity and minerality of this exceptional vineyard. The first clos and first terroir to be vinified and blended separately, Clos des Goisses is unique and instantly recognizable for its extremely steep slope. Its walled 5.5 hectare vineyard is not only the oldest in Champagne, but also the steepest, at 45°. This explains the origin of its name: in the local dialect, "Gois" means a very steep slope. This exceptional terroir with chalky soil is ideally situated facing due South, on Mareuil sur-Ay's best hillside.
