98 points for Champagne Philipponnat's Clos des Goisses 2008!

98 points: "One of the highlights of this important Champagne vintage, Philipponnat's 2008 Extra Brut Clos des Goisses is fabulous. Rich, ample and yet also full of the tension that makes the Champagnes of this year so appealing, the 2008 Goisses is crystalline and incredibly pure. Clos des Goisses has a track record of aging brilliantly for decades. Even knowing that, I am surprised by how harmonious the 2008 is at this early stage in its life...Don't miss it!"
— Antonio Galloni, Vinous (December 2017)


96 points: "Terrific expression of a complex range of citrus scents, confit of lemon and a touch of bergamot. The palate is stunning...The fruit is ideally subtly ripe in classic cooler conditions, but also mineral-stamped in the Clos 'tradition'. The 2008 has everything - a true great."
— Michael Edwards, Decanter (September 18th, 2017)
