IN STOCK
$99.00
Founded in 1830, Champagne Philippe Gonet is located in Le Mesnil-surOger. The 20 hectares of the family's vineyards are spread out on 35 plots planted in 8 different villages. This soil is worked with no insecticide, no herbicide and bio fertilizers.
The Philippe Gonet style combine minerality and pleasure. Our vines all benefit of the legendary terroir of a limestone subsoil, rich in fossils, 40 meters deep, formed more than 100 million years ago.
Made from 100% Grand Cru Chardonnays from different plots of the family vineyards of Mesnil-sur-Oger and Oger, this wine is made from only the best vintages. It is nuanced with silky and toasty aromas, with a well-balanced ‘‘minerality’’.
Dosage: 5g/L. Aging : 6 months in stainless steel vats.
On the nose, there are toasted nut (hazelnut) aromas supported by aromas of white flowers. The powerful and fleshy palate reveals brioche and fresh butter notes completed by a strong and citrusy minerality. The finish is long and shows the origin of its great terroir. This wine has an aging potential of 10 years.
