Philipponnat Clos des Goisses 2011 Champagne, France, 75cl

Philipponnat Clos des Goisses 2011
Champagne, France, 75cl
An iconic single-vineyard Champagne, renowned for its intensity and longevity. The bouquet opens with citrus, quince and pear, layered with notes of hazelnut, brioche and subtle spice. The palate is powerful and structured, combining ripe orchard fruit with vibrant acidity and a long, saline finish. The steep, south-facing slope of Clos des Goisses imparts remarkable concentration, giving this wine both precision and depth.
Founded in 1522, Philipponnat is one of Champagne’s most historic houses, with Clos des Goisses standing as its crown jewel since 1935. This vineyard, with its unique exposure and chalk-rich soils, consistently produces one of the region’s most distinctive and ageworthy Champagnes. The 2011 vintage reflects both the singular terroir and the maison’s tradition of excellence.
"An elegant, pure and wafting nose freely offers up its softly yeasty aromas of apple, quinine and ripe citrus elements, especially Meyer lemon. There is excellent richness to the relatively full-bodied and beautifully textured flavors that are supported by a decidedly pliant mousse before concluding in a complex and sneaky long finish. This is a decidedly rich and generously proportioned vintage for Clos des Goisses and as such, it is already drinking quite well though I underscore that it should continue to age well. I would be inclined to enjoy it now but if your taste runs to that very toasty/yeasty character aged Champagne often develops, this would be a good candidate for that." - 93 Pts, Allen Meadows, Burghound.com
