Special Club Grands Terroirs de Chardonnay Extra Brut 2016 from Pierre Gimonnet & Fils, a vintage Blanc de Blancs from the Grands Crus of Cramant and Chouilly, embodies the purity of the Côte des Blancs’ chalky soils. Aged 60 months on the lees, it reveals citrus, white flower, and brioche notes, fine bubbles, and saline minerality. Silky and lively on the palate, it pairs beautifully with an aperitif or seafood. Enjoy by 2035.
Since 1925, this family-run house has embodied the high standards and finesse of the Côte des Blancs, where Chardonnay thrives on chalky soils.
- Terroir: The Grands Crus of Cramant and Chouilly and the Premiers Crus of Cuis—plots where the chalk imparts its minerality to the grapes.
- Winemaking: Extended aging on the lees, minimal dosage, and respect for the fruit—a signature of precision and elegance.
Tasting notes for Pierre Gimonnet Special Club Grands Terroirs de Chardonnay Extra Brut 2016
Appearance – Straw yellow with gold highlights and silky clarity, threaded with a stream of fine, persistent bubbles.
On the nose – Candied citrus aromas (lime and grapefruit) mingle with white flowers and linden blossom, followed by a touch of toasted brioche and subtle chalky salinity.
On the palate – A smooth texture, lifted by lively acidity and chalky minerality, leads to a long, saline finish of great purity.
Serve at 8–10°C in a champagne flute to preserve its freshness and complexity.
2016 vintage
