Origine 1er Cru Brut Champagne, Jean Gimonnet, Champagne, France

Jean Gimonnet's Champagnes are quite simply the best we have tried for some time. We love the added maturity of the Champagnes from the extended lees ageing. This combined with the intensity of fruit from the 1er Cru grapes results in a wine of great complexity and finesse. The creamy texture is sensational and the fine bubbles just caress the mouth.
