Pierre Gimonnet et Fils’ Champagne Cuvée Fleuron Brut 2017 is a premier expression of this highly regarded producer’s focus on Chardonnay-driven Champagnes from the Côte des Blancs. Made entirely from 100% Chardonnay, this vintage cuvée showcases the terroir of Gimonnet’s best vineyards, primarily in the grand cru villages of Cramant and Chouilly, as well as the premier cru village of Cuis. The 2017 vintage experienced variable weather conditions, marked by a cooler summer that preserved the grapes’ acidity, resulting in a Champagne with vibrant freshness and depth.

On the palate, Cuvée Fleuron 2017 offers an elegant array of citrus, green apple, and pear, accompanied by nuances of white flowers and a hint of toasted brioche from extended lees aging. It’s medium-bodied with a fine mousse and crisp, mineral-driven acidity that underscores the chalky soils of the region. The finish is precise and persistent, making it versatile for pairing with seafood, such as oysters or scallops, as well as creamy cheeses and light poultry dishes.

Pierre Gimonnet et Fils has a long-standing reputation for its dedication to crafting grower Champagne, with a history dating back to 1750. The family maintains traditional methods while adapting sustainable viticulture practices to ensure the best expression of their parcels. This meticulous approach is evident in Cuvée Fleuron, where purity, finesse, and complexity come together to offer an exceptional tasting experience.

Champagne

Champagne boasts some of the world’s greatest luxury brands with Krug, Cristal and, of course, Dom Perignon. But it’s also home to hundreds of small dynamic producers—farmers who grow their own grapes (often organically) and make (often with natural methods) tiny amounts of pure and absolutely delicious wine that reflect the individual personalities of their villages and terroirs. Toast with these wines, for sure. But also treat them like the great wines they are: taste, drink, explore!
