From the very start it’s so aromatic

Pierre Gimonnet et Fils Blanc de Blancs Gastronome, Champagne, France 2018 Humberto From La ConsultaThe 2018 Champagne Cuve Gastronome Brut has a bit sunnier feel, with primary fruit aromas of Williams pear, lime blossoms, candy, and green apple. The palate is full and rounded, with a coarser mineral texture throughout compared to the other cuve. It has wonderful salinity and takes on a more savory expression that I find quite attractive. 93 Pts Jeb Dunnuck
