This 5.5-hectare plot is the oldest clos (walled vineyard) in Champagne and, more importantly, the steepest. Its 45° slope reflects its name: in the old local dialect, \u0026quot;gois\u0026quot; means a hill with a very steep slope. Perfectly exposed to the south, it occupies the best coteau (hill) of Mareuil-sur-Ay, with exceptional soil featuring chalky chalk.

It had the privilege of being a supplier to King Louis XIV of France and, over the centuries, has maintained its international prestige. The village of Mareuil, practically a single street dotted with small winegrowers, is located in the heart of Champagne, at the point where the region's three major zones meet: Montagne de Reims, Vallée de la Marne, and Côte des Blancs. Philipponnat owns 20 hectares of vineyards spread across Mareuil, as well as the municipalities of Ay, Mutigny, and Avenay, all magnificently exposed to the south. The vineyards' crowning glory is the Clos des Goisses: 5.5 hectares of vineyards so well suited to producing a vintage even in the most unfavorable years. The term \u0026quot;goisses\u0026quot; is the feminine form of \u0026quot;gois,\u0026quot; meaning \u0026quot;very difficult to work.\u0026quot; Indeed, the slope, ranging from 30° to 45°, is such that the use of agricultural machinery is impossible, so all work in the \u0026quot;clos\u0026quot; is done manually, as in centuries past. This small vineyard produces a historic label of the house, which became very famous in Italy, not least because it was Gianni Agnelli's favorite. Pierre Philipponnat purchased this wonderful vineyard in 1935 from the Visconti d'Ay family, and today it is considered a priceless treasure. Today, Charles Philipponnat, heir to this glorious family tradition, continues the work of his predecessors with great passion and expertise to uphold the name and prestige of the house. The house's unique and inimitable style is the fruit of centuries-old expertise both in the vineyard and in the cellar. This includes meticulous and careful vineyard management, rooted in a profound environmental awareness, and a vast heritage of reserve wines aged in wood using the solera method. This is how Philipponnat Champagnes, renowned throughout the world, are born, among the finest expressions of their style.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Philipponnat","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46528041320779,"sku":"VIN00131","price":298.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0401\/6616\/2598\/files\/ChampagnePhilipponnat2011ClosdesGoissesinCofanetto.png?v=1716905902","url":"https:\/\/cosidilposto.com\/en\/products\/champagne-philipponnat-2011-clos-des-goisses-in-cofanetto","provider":"Cose del Posto","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
