Michel Gonet 'Vindey-Montgeux’ Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs, NV

Michel Gonet 'Vindey-Montgeux’ Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs, NV

Regular price $60.00

This wine is made from 100% Chardonnay, from the villages of Vindey and Montgeux just south of the Grand Cru of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger in the Côte des Blancs sub-region of Champagne. The wine was conceptualized to highlight the special terroir of the 'Autre-Cru' villages of Vindey and Montgeux, which contribute honeyed citrus and a mineral-driven freshness, respectively. This is the perfect wine to serve as an apéritif alongside soft-ripened, creamy cow's milk cheeses, citrusy raw oysters, or buttermilk battered popcorn shrimp.

Details

From our Importer: With over 40 hectares planted, Champagne Michel Gonet produces almost a dozen different cuvées. However, their Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs from Mesnil sur Oger stands apart from those as it is the result of a philosophical partnership between Marco Pelletier of Domaine de Galouchey and the Gonet family. Marco is helping them isolate their best parcels and along with Gonet’s new Chef de Cave experimenting with different vinification styles. 2011 was the first release of this partnership.

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.
