55pretty incredible when you consider the alcohol is nearly 15%

the 2008 Valpolicella Superiore is fabulous in this vintage

both of which can be found on the equally pure and almost painfully intense flavors that possess excellent power and pin point detail

dense wine by Salon standards

One of the greats

Philipponnat, Cuvee 1522 Vintage:2014 55pretty incredible when you considerThe 2012 Extra Brut Cuve 1522 is creamy, rich and expansive, with striking resonance that builds with time in the glass. Baked apple tart, spice and warm toasty notes are front and center. The 2010 is not super complex, but it is flat out delicious, and a real pleasure to taste. Dosage is 4. 5 grams per liter.
