Pierre Gimonnet & Fils

Pierre Gimonnet & Fils is a champagne house from Cuis, a Premier Cru village in the Côte des Blancs. The house specializes in Blanc de Blancs — all vineyard plots are planted with Chardonnay.

Vignoble & Terroir

The vineyards are located in Cuis, which belongs to the Premier Cru classification of the Côte des Blancs. The soil signature is typical for the region: chalky minerality that gives the wines tension and freshness. The focus is entirely on Chardonnay — a clear positioning as a Blanc de Blancs specialist.

Vinification

The dosage moves in the moderate range around 6 g/l, as shown by the tasted Cuvée Cuis 1er Cru. This restrained dosage gives the terroir room to express itself and emphasizes the natural freshness of the Chardonnay.
