Philipponnat : Cuvée 1522 Grand cru 2007

Wine Advocate-Parker :
Mainly from AA¿ (with a bit of Mailly, Oger and Cramant), the 2007 Grand Cru Extra Brut 1522 blends 65% Pinot Noir with 35% Chardonnay. The bouquet is clear, intense and concentrated, revealing ripe pineapple and some honey flavors along with brioche, bread and iodine aromas. On the palate, this is a highly delicate and mineral 1522 with a lean but complex body and a long, complex finish. The finish reveals refreshing and salty acidity, and it just lingers and lingers... This is an excellent grand cru that should go very well with fish and seafood, even algae. This bottle was disgorged in May 2016. Tasted at the domaine in April 2018.
