Lobenberg: In diese Cuvée gehen auch immer Reserve-Weine zurück bis 2014 mit ein, was rund ein Viertel der Cuvée ausmacht. Der Ausbau der Grundweine ist wie immer bei Gimonnet in Edelstahltanks, um diese hohe Frische und Puristik des Nordens der Côte des Blancs zu unterstreichen. Die Dosage liegt zwischen fünf und sechs Gramm. Cuis ist eine etwas kühlere Gemeinde als die benachbarten Grands Crus Cramant oder Chouilly, die reichere und wärmere Weine ergeben. Cuis ist stahlig und pur, mit kreidiger Mineralität und schicker heller Frucht. So strahlend! Schon der Duft ist eine Erfrischung! Feine, aufsteigende Perlage. Frühlingsblüten und weißer Pfirsich, Nashibirne und cremiges Brioche. Das ist so ein perfekter Einstiegs-Blanc des Blancs, weil er diese kernige Art der Kreideböden als DNA in sich trägt, aber immer verspielt und saftig bleibt. Am Gaumen sehr elegant, fein, beschwingt und frisch. Schon straff, aber nie karg, einfach toll ausgewogen und harmonisch. Toller Apero, ein schicker Blanc de Blanc!

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

-- Wine Spectator: 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 über: Champagne 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 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 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

IWC über: Champagne 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 Cuis Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs Brut

-- Suckling: 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.

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

-- Jeb Dunnuck: 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.
