Cuis 1er Cru Brut Blanc de Blancs Chardonnay

Somm David T
9.1

Gimonnet is one of the true quality producers in Champagne with good QPR. You could make a case for rounding up here to 92 but I don’t think it is quite there, yet.

100% Chardonnay. 100% Cuis 1er Cru in the Côte des Blancs. The vintage blending:

6 vintages.
70% 2021.
30% 2014-2020.
Disgorgement 1/25
Dosage 6g

The palate shows nice mousse. Red & golden apple, pear, white peach, lemon but more lime pulp w/ some zest, pineapple hues, bread dough, ginger-ale, gentle white spice, melted caramel, slivered almond, graham crackers, cream, vanillin notes, crumbled limestone bits, grey volcanic minerals, saline, oyster shells, white spring flowers set in greens, gentle but lively acidity, well crafted-balanced, nicely toned with an elegant, smartly polished finish that lasts nearly two-minutes and lands on somewhat punchy minerals.

Excellent finishing up the other 1/2 wheel of the Jasper Hills Limited Edition Champagne Washed Harbison creamy, white cheese.

Le Mesnil-Sur-Oger Brut Blanc de Blancs Champagne 2018

Brioche and yummy green fruit. Good on its own without food since the acidity wasn't very high. — 21 days ago
