Pierre Gimonnet & Fils
Brut Blanc de Blancs 1er Cru Champagne Chardonnay
Always great. Elegant, supple, outperforms every time. Didn't grab the date but the most recent disgorgement was bright, lofty and carried itself well.

Dec 30th, 2018Pretty golden color, subtle nose with some sweet apples. Lots of great yeasty and bready notes on the palette, fresh crushed apples. You say this a lot with champagne, but this bottle was the most pronounced I've tasted. Paired well with fois gras and raw scallop.

Dec 7th, 2016Not too carbonated. Tastes closer to a Chardonnay.

Dec 10th, 2015This champagne was recommended to me as a substitute out of stock Gosset. Awesome. So smooth. Tiny stream of bubbles I think I like it just as much as Ruinart.

Aug 8th, 2015A departure from the brioche breadiness of some of the Côte des Blancs' more famous grandes maisons. PG & F also sets itself apart due to the high percentage of old vines at their relatively small estate, in a region suffering from a plethora of young vineyards. Crisp clean refreshing fruit forward. Great expression of Blanc de Blancs perfect at the raw bar
