Philipponnat's Grand Blanc represents the pinnacle of Champagne's Blanc de Blancs tradition—a wine crafted exclusively from Chardonnay, complemented by select parcels of Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. This Extra-Brut expression delivers the house's signature elegance: a refined balance of citrus fruit and mineral complexity with a persistent, lengthy finish that defines serious sparkling wine.

The Grand Blanc embodies Philipponnat's commitment to terroir-driven winemaking in the heart of Champagne. Each vintage reflects the region's chalky soils and cool climate, producing a wine of remarkable freshness and precision. At 12% ABV, it achieves remarkable depth without heaviness, making it equally at home as an aperitif or paired with refined cuisine.

This versatile Champagne pairs beautifully with shellfish, crab, and lobster, while its mineral profile complements sushi, Asian cuisine, and delicate chicken preparations. It also works elegantly with Comté cheese and fruit-based desserts, offering the sophistication expected for villa entertaining, fine dining, and yacht hospitality.
