    (NV Pierre Gimonnet & Fils 1er Cru Brut Blanc de Blancs Cuvee Cuis Champagne) An aromatically appealing wine with brioche, spice, and lemon. The palate is lighter in style, nuanced, and flavorful.

    (NV Pierre Gimonnet et Fils Cuis 1er Cru Brut) ($56.00) “Cuvée 133;” a very recent disgorgement (2/11) and quite thorny until it recovers. 72% ’08, 13.3% ’07, 3.3% ’06, 7.5% ’05 and 3.9% ’04. This will be very fine; more overt fruit than last year’s ’07-based cuvée; the finish is classic Gimonnet, refined and complex. Available until mid-Autumn, to be followed by an ’09-based wine, rounder and more open at first glance.

Sommelier Journal

  • By Shayn Bjornholm, MS
    Premiere, (See more on Sommelier Journal...)

    (Pierre Gimonnet Champagne Brut Blanc de Blancs Cuis 1er Cru Cuis) Nowhere else do the récoltant-manipulant wines shine as hypervalues as they do in the vintage category. It doesn’t hurt that ’02 is one of the finest vintages of the last half-century. Here, Gimonnet’s skill with Premier-Cru-as-Grand-Cru-worthy Chardonnay is on full display. This bottling’s emerging style of utterly silken elegance above all—above even the obvious midpalate ooomph and the laser-powered, mineral-coated acidity, promising many years of unfolding layers of complexity—makes it a perfectly regal tipple to toast the finest occasion right now.
