Michel Gonet 'Vindey - Montgueux' Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut, Champagne, France NV
"Vindey–Montgueux" Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut NV is an innovative grower Champagne that unites two distinctive Chardonnay terroirs to create a wine of exceptional balance and complexity. Fruit from Montgueux, renowned for its ripe, expressive Chardonnay grown on a unique chalk hill, is blended with Chardonnay from Vindey, adding freshness, precision, and mineral drive. The result is a beautifully layered Champagne with aromas of Meyer lemon, ripe pear, white peach, citrus blossom, toasted brioche, and roasted almond, underscored by notes of oyster shell and crushed chalk. On the palate, it is vibrant and finely textured, combining generous fruit with crisp acidity, a refined mousse, and a long, saline finish. Finished with an Extra Brut dosage, the wine is precise, energetic, and wonderfully food-friendly, showcasing both the richness of Montgueux and the elegance of Vindey in a harmonious expression of Chardonnay.
