CHAMPAGNE MASTERCLASS: PIERRE GIMONNET & FILS

What

Based in the Côte des Blancs, Pierre Gimonnet has built its reputation on Chardonnay and an intimate understanding of its vineyards. From the cool slopes of Cuis to the Grand Cru villages of Cramant, Chouilly and Oger, each Champagne reflects a different part of this exceptional region.

Throughout the evening, we’ll explore six Champagnes, including three distinguished Special Club Cuvées, Cuis Premier Cru 2018, Grands Terroirs de Chardonnay 2015 and Oger Grand Cru 2016.... these are wines that are only made when the vintage and fruit are considered highly worthy.
