Production of the magnum Royale Réserve Non Dosé Philipponnat

This champagne is made from a meticulous blend of emblematic Champagne grape varieties:

• 65% Pinot Noir: mostly from Mareuil-sur-Ay, it provides structure, vinosity and depth.
• 30% Chardonnay: from the best crus of the Côte des Blancs, it brings finesse, elegance and mineral tension.
• 5% Pinot Meunier: grown in the Marne Valley, it adds suppleness and a subtle fruity touch.

Only first-press juices are selected, guaranteeing a pure, refined expression of terroir. Vinification is carried out according to traditional methods, avoiding premature oxidation. Partial malolactic fermentation is carried out to preserve the balance between freshness and roundness. Approximately 20-30% of reserve wines, aged in wood using the perpetual reserve method, enrich the blend and give it remarkable complexity.

Ageing on the lees continues for three years, well beyond legal requirements, allowing the wine to develop a beautiful aromatic maturity. As its name suggests, this cuvée is non-dosed (0 g/l sugar), offering a raw, sincere expression of champagne.
