Wine rated (2018 guide) 15/20 (Good wine)

Rated estate (2018 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)

About the estate:

Xavier Gonet set up his own business in Bisseuil, a premier cru in the Marne Valley, with his wife Julie, née Médeville, of Château Gilette in Sauternes. They have a unique selection of vineyards: the family’s contribution of great Chardonnays from Mesnil-sur-Oger (Louvière, Champ d’Alouette), fine Pinot Meunier (Mareuil) and Pinot Noir (Ambonnay and Bisseuil) wines. To ensure the wine retains its liveliness as it ages, malolactic fermentation is halted. An increasingly significant portion of the base wines also ferments in barrels, which enhances the fineness of the bubbles. We appreciate the perfect consistency of this distinctive range, a fitting reward for the coordinated efforts in viticulture and winemaking.
