Really youthful and exciting release from gimonet. Worth seeking out, drinking now and holding for later.

Light chrysanthemum color coupled with light-to-medium-bodied and fruity flavors of green apple and pear. Elegant bubbles, sexy acidity, and totally unsweet Champagne. A bit expensive & light, but it's nice to enjoy with berry fruits.

Kleopatra Bright

Steadiest stream of bubbles I've ever seen Hot quince Lemon curd Rose petals Floral Flint and smoky minerality Perfumed Palate starts with pears and apples then the intense minerality almost makes the wine seem flawed until the bubbles subside and it's all fruit finishing with a long ass aftertaste of poached pears and baked pie crust. Fkn yum.

Pooneet Kant

Nice champagne but honestly slightly underperformed my expectations. Bubbles were quite strong at first. But overall this is precise and pure - laser focused in fact. Doesn't have the yeasty / lees-y complexity that I normally like but obviously a ver nice wine.

Benjamin Hickey

Special club!! Nice depth of flavour but still fresh.

Patrick Clary

Mary Beth traded a glass of Chardonnay for this & even I was able to enjoy a glass myself before she and Gi-Gi finished it off.

Pooneet Kant

This is obviously good. Bit lower acid on the palate than I generally prefer, but this has the overall complexity to still be excellent. Hint of yeast, long finish.
