Champagne Gimonnet Gonet l`Origine Blanc de Blanc Grand Cru, brut, 12% vol., Magnum

The non-vintage Blanc de Blancs (100% Chardonnay) from Grand Cru communities of the Cote des Blancs. Fine mousseux and very dry. With salty and mineral notes, paired with hints of brioche and yellow fruits. Classic Grand Cru champagne from the heart of the Cote des Blancs. Originating from two offspring of well-known winemaking families on the Cote des Blancs, Anne Gonet and Philippe Gimonnet founded their own champagne house Gimonnet-Gonet in 1986. Starting with 5 hectares, the family now owns 13.5 hectares, 6 of which are in the best Grand Cru locations on the Cote de Blancs in the municipalities of Mesnil-sur Oger, Chouilly, Cramant and Oger. Her son Charles has been running the estate in the established manner since 2012. The vines are at least 40 years old, all qualities are matured in steel tanks and, depending on the quality, mature on the lees for 3-6 years. All champagnes have the minerality and saltiness typical of the Cote des Blancs. They take some time to breathe and should be drunk out of large glasses. Then unfold their full size.
