Description

Réserve Perpétuelle takes its name from the eponymous Champagne practice of progressively blending the current year’s wines with wines from previous vintages. The idea is to preserve the freshness of the blend through successive renewals without losing any of the complexity acquired through ageing.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1522
  • Bottles produced: 600.000
  • Hectares: 20
Apvril Le Philipponnat (the ‘Le’ was subsequently dropped during the French Revolution) was the earliest member of the family to settle in Champagne. Captain of a Swiss military unit from the canton of Fribourg, he joined the French military during the war between Francis I and Italy. He is known to have married Marie d’Ambonnay, through whom he owned vineyards in Mareuil and Ay. The House dates its establishment in the Champagne region from 1522. Apvril is mentioned as the owner of Ay on this date in the will of Dom Jean Royer, the last Regular Abbot of Hautvillers.

In 1696, Apvril’s descendants, who were often ‘Royal Mayors’ of Ay, registered the family coat of arms in the Armorial de France. Today, this same coat of arms adorns all the House’s bottles. ?The labels of Philipponnat, vineyard owners and wine merchants, were among the first to bear the signature of sparkling Champagnes as early as the mid-19th century.

Wine making First press of grapes from the heart of the Champagne region, mainly from the Grands Crus and Premiers Crus of Pinot Noir around Mareuil-sur-Ay. Traditional vinification in vats and wooden barrels, avoiding any premature oxidation. Of the wines from the 2020 harvest, 23% were produced without malolactic fermentation. Aged in casks to instil a sublime depth and patina, our reserve wines are a treasure that the House re-blends and renews each year, incorporating them into the new harvest to make it more complex while preserving its minerality.
Aging Aged on lees in the House cellars at a constant temperature of 11°C for a minimum of three years – much longer than the legal minimum of fifteen months.
