Champagne Jean Gimonnet 1er Cru Millesime 2004

Get to know: Champagne Jean Gimonnet 1er Cru Millésime 2004

A truly refined Champagne Blanc de Blancs from the Premier Cru vineyards of Cuis.

Tasting Note

Champagne Jean Gimonnet 1er Cru Millésime 2004 is an elegant vintage cuvée that balances freshness, minerality, and depth. Crafted with meticulous care by Jean-Luc Gimonnet, this prestige bottling reflects both the house’s dedication to terroir and the long ageing that defines great vintage Champagne. Bright golden in colour with fine, persistent bubbles. The nose is expressive with aromas of lemon zest, baked apple, toasted brioche, and delicate floral notes. On the palate, this vintage Champagne shows remarkable balance – creamy in texture yet lifted by vibrant acidity, with flavours of citrus, hazelnut, and chalky minerality. The finish is long, elegant, and beautifully layered.

Top food pairings:

  • Seared scallops with lemon butter
  • Poultry in a light cream sauce
  • Mature Comté or aged Parmesan
Kate Says

"Millésime 2004 from Jean Gimonnet feels like opening a time capsule – all the elegance of aged Champagne, with freshness that makes it endlessly drinkable. A wonderful wine for special moments."
