Pierre Gimonnet et Fils 'Millesime de Collection Vieilles Vignes de Chardonnay', Champagne, France 2009 1.5L La grange de l'oncle Charles Without any treatmentVery fresh with bundles of lemon and lime and beautiful chalky character. The low dosage makes it extra brut but that doesnt come across as it has so much fruit and ripeness mixed with lees character that builds up to some light custard layering. This feels young and vibrant with an exciting future. This is a good example showing how good one grape variety can be in a region.
