Expert ratings

Robert Parker 97/100

"Describes the 1996 Clos des Goisses L.V. as an extraordinary champagne with a rich and powerful profile. The nose offers a complex bouquet of toasted brioche, honey, dried apricots, and a touch of smokiness. The palate is full-bodied and intense, with a vibrant acidity that provides freshness and structure. The finish is exceptionally long and layered, showcasing mineral and saline notes."

More About The Winery

Champagne Philipponnat is a historic family house based in Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, with roots in the region dating back to 1522. For over five centuries, the Philipponnat family has been closely connected to Champagne, building a reputation for precise, terroir-driven wines with strong Pinot Noir character. Today, the house is led by Charles Philipponnat, continuing the family’s commitment to quality and identity.

The house owns vineyards in some of Champagne’s finest terroirs, including Premier and Grand Cru villages across the Montagne de Reims and Vallée de la Marne. Pinot Noir plays a central role in the style, bringing structure, depth, and ageing potential, complemented by Chardonnay for freshness and Pinot Meunier for balance. Sustainable viticulture and careful parcel selection are key elements of the philosophy.

Philipponnat is particularly renowned for its iconic Clos des Goisses, a historic single vineyard overlooking the Marne River, known for producing powerful, structured, and long-lived Champagnes. Across the range, the wines are vinified with precision, often using a proportion of oak and reserve wines to enhance complexity while maintaining freshness and purity.

The style of Champagne Philipponnat is defined by tension, vinosity, and elegance, offering structured Champagnes with depth, mineral backbone, and excellent ageing potential.
