Tasting notes for Pierre Gimonnet Grand cru Special Club Chouilly Extra Brut 2017
Appearance – Luminous gold highlights and fine, persistent effervescence, like lacework of bubbles against silk.
On the nose – White flowers and Williams pear unfold into a delicate array, followed by vineyard peach and ripe citrus, then toasted brioche, sweet almond, and brown butter. A chalky, saline touch underscores it all—a hallmark of the Grands Crus.
On the palate – A silky, caressing opening gives way to mineral tension and vibrant freshness, with candied lemon, white fruit, and pastry notes leading to a long, airy, subtly saline finish.
Serve at 10–12°C in a champagne flute or white wine glass to reveal its full complexity.
