75cl

Cuvée 1522 Rosé Philipponnat: complex and well-balanced, this rosé version of Cuvée 1522 has a pleasant liveliness that makes it a great rosé Champagne, straightforward and mineral, fruity and spicy. This character stems in part from the vinification in wood, and above all from the light tannic contribution of the Pinot Noir vinified in red from the House's Mareuil-sur-Ay vineyard.

Terroirs

The summer was particularly rainy, with autumnal temperatures at the end of August. In view of the rainy weather, sanitary conditions were very satisfactory, with very little grey rot, and no powdery mildew or downy mildew on bunches. A particular feature of the year in some areas was the presence of acid rot and Suzukii drosophila. Thanks to rapid picking and rigorous sorting at harvest time, our grapes were of excellent sanitary quality, with an exceptional average bunch weight. The harvest took place from September 13 to 25, 2014.

About this house

To make its wines, Philipponnat uses the best grapes, mostly from Premiers and Grands Crus, exclusively in cuvée (first press), and makes a point of harvesting grapes that are riper than the Champagne average. Some of the wines are fermented or aged in barrels, which is exceptional in Champagne, and wood ageing gives them greater complexity, without making them heavy. The wines are aged in bottle, on their lees, for between three and eleven years. Affirming a distinctive style that doesn't give in to trends, the Champagne House produces a range of Champagnes that are above all wines: tasty, powerful and balanced.

Chef's word

Chef PHILIPPE MILLE

"Witnessing the soul of Champagne isn't just about cooking the terroir... it's about understanding who it is!

Having worked in the kitchens of Messrs Bordier, Grondart, Anton and Roth, and as Yannick Alléno's right-hand man at Le Scribe and then Le Meurice, he brought Domaine Les Crayères its first macaron in 2011, followed by a second in 2012, which he has kept for over 10 years.

His menu is inspired by the seasons and the Champagne region.
