Merchant's description
Philipponnat Les Cintres Extra Brut 2008 is a vintage Champagne produced from a single plot of Pinot Noir within the Mareuil-sur-Aÿ vineyard. This wine is aged entirely in oak barrels to create a vinous, complex character. It displays notes of yellow plum, toasted brioche, dried honey and chalky minerals. The mousse is exceptionally fine, supporting a palate that is intense and taut, showing the structural power typical of the very best 2008 vintage Champagnes.
