Guide des Vins Gault & Millau

Wine rated (2016 guide) 15/20 (Very good)

About the wine:

Quite a simple nose of baked apple. On the palate, this champagne reveals itself, with substance and a beautiful sapidity that prolongs the wine on the finish. A cuvée to be appreciated for its savory, salty side, which will work wonders at the table.

Wine rated (2017 guide) 15/20 (Good wine)

Estate rated (2018 guide) 1*Star (Stars in the making or quality winemakers with good production levels, you won't be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)

About the wine:

A lightly tinted Champagne that reveals lovely, complex flavors of red fruit on a fleshy, enveloping, gourmet finish.

About the domain :

Xavier Gonet has set up on his own in Bisseuil, a premier cru in the Marne valley, with his wife Julie, née Médeville, of Château Gilette in Sauternes. They have an original range of vines at their disposal: the family's contribution of great Chardonnays from Mesnil-sur-Oger (Louvière, Champ d'Alouette), good Pinot Meunier vintages (Mareuil) and Pinot Noir (Ambonnay and Bisseuil). Malolactic fermentation is blocked to ensure the wine's liveliness when aged. An ever-increasing proportion of clear wines are fermented in barrels, which enhances the finesse of the bubbles. We appreciate the perfect homogeneity of a personal range, just reward for synchronized efforts in viticulture and vinification.
