It&#8217;s also stunning value for money. Interestingly, it has &#8216;Chardonnay&#8217; on the front label. I wasn&#8217;t aware that this was allowed in Champagne, and I&#8217;m not sure the CIVC are massively keen on it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Champagne Gimonnet Blanc de Blancs Cuvee Cuis 1er Cru NV France<\/strong><br \/>\nThis bottling is 72% 2011, with the balance from four vintages back to 2006. Delicate, fine toasty notes on the nose. Real finesse, in a pure, precise style with bright citrus and white peach fruit.
