"Lively, airy, mouth-watering, perfectly balanced... this Cuis 1er Cru non-vintage Brut cuvée represents the archetype of the Pierre Gimonnet et Fils style. An introduction to our style, it is the Domaine's priority cuvée. Each year, we use all the wines we need to reproduce this House Style. This classic "non-vintage" blend, with its consistent taste, is appreciated for its liveliness, lightness, and finesse: all the purity of the great Chardonnays of the Côte des Blancs." - House Notes
"In these days of sharply rising prices, this family-run house offers great value thanks to its magnificent chardonnay vineyards. This is Gimmonet's entry point wine, the bouquet of white flowers/apple blossom, the palate with elegance and balance, fruit finish fresh thanks to the modest dosage" - 94 Points, James Halliday
"A toasty style with slightly nutty, singed-bread aromas plus very intense white flowers reminiscent of linden trees. Light-bodied with crisp acidity, medium-sized bubbles and a leaner finish that’s elegant and floral. Drink now." - 92 Points, James Suckling
