A finely crafted Champagne Blanc de Blancs from the Premier Cru village of Cuis.
Champagne Jean Gimonnet "La Guette" 2008 is a complex and elegant sparkling wine that benefits from both great terroir and time. Made exclusively from Chardonnay, this vintage cuvée offers precision, finesse, and a depth of flavour shaped by over a decade of lees ageing. Pale with a delicate, persistent mousse. Aromas of citrus peel, white peach, toasted brioche, and hazelnut rise from the glass. On the palate, the 2008 vintage shows great tension and balance, with Chardonnay’s hallmark chalky minerality underpinning flavours of baked apple, lemon curd, and subtle almond. The finish is long, fine, and lingering, leaving a graceful impression of freshness and depth.
