Lobenberg: Hellgolden mit grünlichem Schimmer. Feine, aufsteigende Perlage. In der Nase Zitrusfrüchte, gelbes Steinobst und nussige Töne. Am Gaumen sehr elegant, fein, beschwingt und frisch. Toller Apero, ein schicker Blanc de Blanc! 92+/100

Burghound über: Champagne Cuvée Cuis Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs Brut

-- Burghound: A wafting and distinctly cool nose featuring essence of white flowers and Meyer lemon slides gracefully into bright, clean and utterly delicious middle weight flavors that possess lovely depth and length on the markedly dry finish. This is dry but not aggressively so and I very much like the yeasty character that adds significant interest to the finale. For my taste this is drinking perfectly now though it could easily be held. Lovely and understated. 93/100

Galloni über: Champagne Cuvée Cuis Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs Brut

-- Galloni: Light yellow. Poached pear, honeysuckle and quinine on the nose, complicated by a hint of toasted bread. Energetic citrus and orchard fruit flavors are softened by suggestions of smoky lees and vanilla bean. Turns spicier on the long, mineral-accented finish, which features juicy citrus and melon notes. 93/100

Wine&Spirits über: Champagne Cuvée Cuis Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs Brut

-- Wine&Spirits: From north-facing vineyards in Cuis, this is 2017 chardonnay, enhanced with 27 percent of reserve wines aged in bottles, from the 2010 to 2015 vintages. The pale-white fruit holds mineral freshness in its depths of white-cherry and white-peach flavors. The acidity provides tension and limestone abrasion, while feeling completely integrated into the fruit. It’s a gripping cold-climate chardonnay for meaty game fish. 93/100

Parker über: Champagne Cuvée Cuis Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs Brut

-- Parker: Gimonnet’s NV Brut Chardonnay Blanc de Blancs Premier Cru Cuvee Cuis fills out nicely on the mid-palate, with a little more mid-palate pliancy and richness than the Belles Annees. Green pears, flowers and crushed rocks are some of the nuances that flow through to a wiry finish endowed with significant energy and polish. This is a striking effort from Gimonnet. 92/100

Wine Enthusiast über: Champagne Cuvée Cuis Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs Brut

-- Wine Enthusiast: With its crisp apple fruit and touch of citrus, this initially seems to be merely fruit. Then, slowly, richness and a sense of maturity emerge to create a wine that is complex, full and rich. Open this an hour before pouring. 92/100

Wine Spectator über: Champagne Cuvée Cuis Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs Brut

-- Wine Spectator: Aromatic, with apple blossom and ripe fruit notes, this well-cut blanc de blancs shows a chalky underpinning, layered with flavors of glazed nectarine, toasted almond and candied ginger. Long and creamy on the finish. 92/100

IWC über: Champagne Cuvée Cuis Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs Brut

-- IWC: Pale gold with a frothy mousse. Highly aromatic bouquet of tangerine, pear, minerals, sweet butter and lees; smells like a Puligny-Montrachet. Fine, focused and pure, offering spicy citrus and orchard fruit flavors and a strong mineral bite. The minerality gains strength on the finish, which is spicy and strikingly energetic. This pure, graceful Champagne would be perfect with oysters. All of Gimonnet's wines go through malolactic fermentation. 92/100

Suckling über: Champagne Cuvée Cuis Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs Brut

-- Suckling: This delightful Blanc de Blancs marries excellent depth of character – all the citrus, crisp pear and floral aromas of chardonnay – with charm. Properly dry, but very harmonious, thanks to the excellent balance of citrusy freshness and creaminess. Long, clean finish, accentuated by the lively mousse. A cuvee of 2/3rds 2018 with a third of vintages between 2016 and 2011, disgorged in July, 2021. Drink now. 92/100

Jeb Dunnuck über: Champagne Cuvée Cuis Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs Brut

-- Jeb Dunnuck: This NV Champagne 1er Cru Blanc de Blancs Cuis Brut is expressive, with more classic appeal, though it takes on a light reductive tinge, with flint and wet asphalt aromatics. It has more direct concentration, with fresh green apple underneath, lemon zest, and white blossoms. The palate is more focused and concentrated, with a long finish and a pronounced chalky texture. The palate is long and persistent, with fresh acidity. I think this will mature nicely and take on classic blanc de blancs custard in the future. Drink 2025-2045. 92/100
