Michel Gonet Grand Cru Les Mesnil Sur Oger Champagne, 2016

Michel Gonet Grand Cru Les Mesnil Sur Oger Champagne, 2016

Regular price $92.00

100% Chardonnay sourced entirely from one of the Gonet family's most historic parcels: Les Hautes Mottes in Le Mesnil Sur Oger. Les Hautes Mottes is a parcel neighbored by Les Chetillons and La Croix Collard. This vintage Champagne remains sees extensive lees contact, bottled with zero dosage and is a clear expression of the renowned precision and mineral depth of this celebrated Côte des Blancs village. Aromas of lemon curd, green apple, white peach, and toasted brioche are layered with notes of chalk, hazelnut, and delicate floral nuances. The palate is focused and elegant, combining vibrant acidity with a creamy texture and pronounced saline minerality, culminating in a long, refined finish. An exceptional pairing for lobster, scallops, Dover sole, or aged Comté cheese.

Details

From our Importer: Sourced entirely from one of the Gonet family's most historic parcels: Les Hautes Mottes in Le Mesnil Sur Oger. Les Hautes Mottes is a parcel neighbored by Les Chetillons and La Croix Collard, so a prime parcel to say the least. 100% Chardonnay that remains on its lees until being disgorged just before leaving the cellar and is zero dosage.

Gonet is a very old name in Champagne. The family moved to Champagne from the Beaujolais in the 15th century and worked in the vineyards before establishing a Champagne house in the early 1800s. Each subsequent generation helped lay a foundation for a successful domaine with the most recent patriarch, Michel Gonet, enlarging the cellars in Avize and refocusing their winemaking in the 1970s.

The total holdings are around 40 hectares, consisting mostly of Chardonnay on the Côte des Blancs. The vines are located in the villages of Le Mesnil sur Oger, a little further south, in Vindey on the Sézannais hillsides, and also near Troyes, on the slopes of Montgueux.
