As an apéritif, it pairs beautifully with aged hard cheeses such as Parmesan, or with fine slices of Prosciutto di Parma or bresaola.
At the table, it complements dishes like Saltimbocca alla Romana, herb-roasted chicken, or pork tenderloin with seasonal vegetables. It also pairs wonderfully with gently spiced dhal, mild vegetable curry, mushroom risotto, or fresh herb pasta.
Its presentation stands out for its dynamism, already hinting at a certain maturity in the wine.
With aeration, distinct autumnal nuances appear, such as chanterelle mushrooms, before the expression settles, revealing the balance and vibrant character of this Cuvée.
Its vinosity quickly takes the lead, supported by precise malic-driven freshness and harmoniously balanced by the dosage.
Mid-palate, the effervescence gently fades, giving way to a fleshier, warmer texture. The creamy mouthfeel evokes the softness and comfort of cashmere.

Premier Cru
Champagne Philbert
From a generous, sun-filled harvest, this Cuvée combines vinosity and warmth while preserving — thanks to its malic acidity — the freshness essential to the Champagne identity.
A great Champagne!
The history of our Maison is deeply intertwined with that of our family. It all began at the end of the 19th century, when our ancestors were already tending the vines with passion.
In 1923, driven by a desire to go further, Victor Philbert decided to bottle his own Champagne.
A few years later, one of his descendants, Henri Philbert, became a récoltant-manipulant and created the brand Champagne Philbert. Since then, six generations have followed, each adding their own contribution to this heritage.
Today, our House is still owned by the founding family, and we take pride in carrying on this know-how passed down through generations.
Since 2021, Yannick Dubois has had the honor of managing the vineyard and crafting the champagnes that embody this family legacy.
