Lively, airy, salivating, technically perfect!
This cuvee “Brut non-vintage Cuis 1er Cru” represents the archetype of the Pierre Gimonnet & Fils style. In order to do this, during harvest, they separate all juice from different terroir in different tanks.
After 6-8 months those wines are clear, they taste them and they blend wine of the year with reserve wines to repeat over the year the style they expect.
To succeed with this delicate and fundamental step, the house of Pierre Gimonnet & Fils has chosen to keep all its reserve wines in bottles (on fine lees) and not in tanks or in casks. This method gives more freshness (less oxidation) and more mature (autolysis) in wines. This method is very rare in Champagne.
Pierre Gimonnet & Fils are the only winemaker in Champagne to keep all their reserve wines in bottles, and has been since 1982.
Lively, ethereal, salivating, perfectly balanced… this Brut vintage Cuis 1er Cru represents the archetype of the Pierre Gimonnet et Fils style. Initiation to their style, it is the priority cuvée of the Domaine.
Each year, they use all the wines they need to reproduce this House Style. They appreciate this classic blend "without year", with a constant taste, for its liveliness, its lightness, and its finesse: all the purity of the Great Chardonnays of the Côte des Blancs.
For us, this cuvée must awaken the taste buds without attacking them (hence the importance of reserve wines kept in bottles), flatter with its fruity and very fresh side. The pure finish leaves the palate "very clean" and invites consumption.
