If you enjoy super clean and fresh champagne without all the honey, toasty exotics then you may have found a truly brilliant example of no fuss champagne.
"Gimonnet’s Cuis is the quintessential apéritif, and one of the most pristine champagnes for its price. Freshness and purity of lemon and crunchy nashi pear sing with primary vibrancy, pinpoint accuracy and Gimonnet precision. Bottle age has built seamless texture without yet contributing secondary complexity. The fine salt chalk minerality of the village is energised by crystalline acidity. It’s signature Cuis, classic Gimonnet and fantastic-value champagne."
