"The 2019 Champagne Premier Cru Blanc De Blancs Fleuron Brut is made entirely from Chardonnay grapes from the Grand Cru villages of Cramant, Chouilly, and 25% from the Premier Cru of Cuis. It has structure, intensity, and focus, yet remains crystalline and pure, with notes of candied lime, green apples, pastry dough, and chalky earth. Medium-bodied, it™s bright, refreshing, and long on the palate, with a sustained finish that features a hint of bitter lime pith that™s pleasing and salty. Disgorged in July 2024 with 3.5 grams per liter dosage. Drink 2025-2045."

"An elegant version, offering a finely detailed mousse and lithe, lively acidity, with beeswax, poached quince and pear, and biscuit notes."

"A lively and bright blanc de blancs that has lemon peel, sliced apple, croissant and biscuit on the nose. It™s fine and silky on the palate with light bready hints to the citrus fruit. 100% chardonnay from Cramant, Chouilly and Cuis. Disgorged in 2023. Dosage 5g/L. Drink now."

"The 2019 Brut Blanc de Blancs Fleuron is gorgeous. Rich, ample and seductive in the glass, the Fleuron is so showy today. Lemon confit, marzipan, spice, dried herbs, cedar and a kiss of oak all meld together in the glass. Lifted tropical overtones add a decidedly exotic flair. The blend is 39% Cramant (Grand Cru), 36% Chouilly (Grand Cru) and 25% Cuis (1er Cru). Dosage is 3.6 grams per liter. Disgorged: December 2024."

"The excellent 2019 Brut Blanc de Blancs Cuvée Fleuron, sourced from eight lieux-dits in Cramant, Chouilly and Cuis, was disgorged in October 2023 with five grams per liter dosage. Soaring from the glass with aromas of green apple, lemon zest, elderflower and toasted bread, it is full-bodied, textural and intense, supported by bright acids and chalky extract that provide a sensation of freshness. In short, it reflects identity of the northern Côte des Blancs with a signature touch of Gimonnet, of course."

"Entirely from Premier and Grand Cru villages of the Côte des Blancs, the 2017 Champagne Blanc De Blancs Cuvée Fleuron Brut is a bright yellow hue and is compact and powerful, yet crystalline, with notes of crystalized ginger, fresh pear, honey, and lemon candies. Long on the palate, it™s elegant with ripe concentration, a core of fresh acidity, and a pristine finish. A superb wine from this vintage, it™s great now and will drink well over the next 6-8 years."

"The 2017 Brut Blanc de Blancs Cuvée Fleuron (100% Chardonnay) is soft, open-knit and ready to go. Sourced from 73% Grand Cru sites and 27% 1er Cru sites, there™s a good bit of flavor complexity such that the 2017 is already approaching maturity. I would not wait too long on this. Brioche, dried flowers, mint, spice and nut hints linger on the subtle, nicely nuanced finish. Dosage is 5 grams per liter. Disgorged: January 23, 2022."
