"The Clos des Goisses 2015 is a blend of 78% Pinot Noir and 22% Chardonnay that was 100% barrel fermented and finished with a 4.5 grams per liter dosage. Faint reductive notes blow off to reveal wonderfully fresh, creamy aromas of gariguette strawberry, rhubarb, vervain, crushed oyster shell and lightly toasted brioche. Medium-bodied with a pure, ripe fruit core and stimulating acidity adding a shimmering vibrancy to the delicate, pinpoint mousse. Overall this 2015 has a beautifully restrained, high-toned intensity that resonates like the constant tone of a tuning fork through the long, ethereal finish. Disgorged March 2024 (tasted four months post-disgorgement).18285 bottles produced."

"Surpassing the 2010, the 2015 Extra-Brut Clos des Goisses is gorgeous, evoking aromas of pear, mirabelle, spices, honey, brioche and perfectly ripe orchard fruits intertwined with delicate notes of iodine. Full-bodied, vinous and concentrated, it's layered and dense with remarkable depth at the core combined with racy acids and a structured, perfectly balanced mid-palate. Slightly austere at this stage, it finishes long and sappy with a licorice-inflected aftertaste. This blend of 78% Pinot Noir and 22% Chardonnay, disgorged in March 2024 with a dosage of 4.5 grams per liter, did not undergo malolactic fermentation. Readers eager to experience this superb Champagne at its peak should be patient." YC

"Made from 78% Pinot Noir and the rest Chardonnay, the 2015 Champagne Clos Des Goisses Extra Brut is one of the first wines of the cuvée that was 100% barrel fermented, and it also underwent complete malo fermentation, as always. A medium straw/golden color, it’s expressive in the glass with ripe, savory notes of black cherries, sous bois, delicate toast spice, umami savory notes, and yeasty fresh baked bread. Full-bodied, it fills the palate with a very long and sapid mid-palate richness, revealing accented notes of grapefruit on the finish. It’s long lasting and has a kiss of warmth, which is to be expected in this vintage, although it remains very much in balance, with a noble feel. An exceptional wine from 2015, the team at Philipponnat knocked these 2015s out of the park. This and their other 2015s are likely going to develop into great examples of how wines with powerful, rich structures in warm vintages can age without relying solely on acidity to carry the torch. Drink 2027-2047. 18,000 bottles produced. Disgorged in March 2024 and not yet released."

"The 2015 Extra-Brut Clos des Goisses is shaping up to be a jewel of a wine. This sample was disgorged, in other words with no dosage. What impresses me most about the 2015 at this stage is its density and nascent, embryonic power. In 2015, Charles Philipponnat and his team found that the wood-fermented lots blended best, so this is the first Goisses that was fermented entirely in wood. There's a balance of power and finesse that is especially captivating."
