75cl

The perfect complement to Maison Philipponnat's trilogy of vintage wines, Cuvée Sublime Réserve is a Champagne Blanc de Blancs with a dry dosage (30 g/l) created especially for gastronomy. This pure Chardonnay, produced in the finest vintage years, is distinguished by a slight acidity that gives it a certain freshness and enhances its aromas of white fruit, butter and honey.

Terroirs

This cuvée is made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes from terroirs classified as Premiers and Grands Crus. This champagne is vinified exclusively in stainless steel tanks to preserve maximum freshness and lightness. Malolactic fermentation is omitted to preserve the wine's natural freshness and enhance its ageing potential.

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.
