Perfect for an aperitif, this Réserve is ideal for convivial moments and pairs beautifully with a sea bass carpaccio enhanced by a touch of lemon zest and a drizzle of olive oil, a zucchini and Parmesan flan, an avocado and prawn salad, or a terrine of fish or vegetables scented with basil.
A refined and dynamic visual presentation.
Over time, mineral accents unfold, interwoven with floral notes of neroli and magnolia. A deep nuance, subtly reminiscent of the earth, completes the bouquet with elegance.
Mid-palate, flavours unfold into elegant notes of baked apple and rose petals, creating a silky and fluid texture reminiscent of the softness and elegance of fine cotton.
Grande Réserve
Jean-Luc Gimonnet
An authentic and timeless interpretation of Champagne, elegantly reflecting the purity of its terroir.
Passionate artisan and proud heir to a long dynasty of Vignerons, my loyalty to theterroir is not just a tradition, but a quest for authenticity that animates my work everyday.The unique terroir of Cuis, with its predominance of chalk, is my canvas.It allows me to sculpt wines with a soul, creations that narrate the story of their originwith every sip.The aging process on lees, ranging from 7 years for our youngest Cuvées to over 20years for the exceptional vintages, is a testament to patience and devotion.Each added year contributes to enriching their character, like a work of art thatimproves over time.For me, the creation of each Cuvée is comparable to haute couture: it requires notjust thousands of hours of hard work, but also impeccable precision and creativity. It'sthese moments of pure creation that fuel my passion and reinforce my commitmentto excellence.
