Denne cuvée indeholder altid reservevine fra 2014, som udgør omkring en fjerdedel af cuvéen. Som altid hos Gimonnet modnes basisvinene i rustfri ståltanke for at understrege den høje friskhed og renhed i den nordlige del af Côte des Blancs. Doseringen er mellem fem og seks gram. Cuis er en noget køligere kommune end de nærliggende Grands Crus Cramant eller Chouilly, som producerer rigere og varmere vine. Cuis er stålsat og ren, med kridtagtig mineralitet og elegant, lys frugt. Så strålende! Alene aromaen er forfriskende! Fin, stigende perlage. Forårsblomster og hvid fersken, nashi-pære og cremet brioche. Dette er en perfekt Blanc des Blancs på indgangsniveau, fordi den bærer den kridtholdige jords markante natur i sit DNA, men altid forbliver legende og saftig. Meget elegant, fin, livlig og frisk i munden. Allerede stram, men aldrig streng, blot vidunderligt afbalanceret og harmonisk. En fantastisk aperitif, en chic Blanc de Blanc!

Burghound om: Champagne Cuis Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs Brut

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 om: Champagne Cuis Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs Brut

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 Spectator om: Champagne Cuis Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs Brut

There's a subtle succulence to this graceful Champagne, framing flavors of peach skin, ripe pear, Marcona almond and orchard blossoms. The fine, detailed mousse is raw silk–like in texture. Finishes with minerally fleur de sel and oyster shell notes. Disgorged December 2023. Drink now through 2029.

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

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 om: Champagne Cuis Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs Brut

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

IWC om: Champagne Cuis Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs Brut

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

Wine Enthusiast om: Champagne Cuis Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs Brut

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

Suckling om: Champagne Cuis Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs Brut

Subtle aromas of citrus fruit, pear, lemon curd and chalk. Fresh and crisp on the medium-bodied palate, with mineral notes and fine bubbles. Clean and balanced with a lot of freshness and vibrancy. Delicate, creamy aftertaste. Drink now.
