Description
Cuvée Spécial Club by Maison Gimonnet is the estate's prestige cuvée. It is a Blanc de Blancs champagne blended from old vines in Cramant and Cuis.
Gimonnet's Spécial Club 2012 is a blend of Chardonnay from old vines in Cramant, Chouilly and Cuis.
The Cramant terroir makes up 60% of the blend, with Chardonnays from Buissons, Hautes Bauves, Bionnes, le bateau and Gros Monts. A third of these grapes come from vines planted between 1911 and 1913.
Chouilly accounts for 30% of the blend and Cuis for 10%.
21,516 bottles of the Spécial Club 2012 Gimonnet were produced.
This is an intense champagne, with superb aromatic persistence on the palate. Noble aromas of candied fruit, honey and nougat.
On the palate, the Spécial Club 2012 displays complexity and intense aromas worthy of the finest Blanc de Blancs.
The finish is superb, lasting for seconds on the palate.
