Description
100% Chardonnay. Didier Gimonnet is a second generation of growers to direct this superb domaine. Gimonnet is known for their high percentage of old vines that sets it apart in a region suffering from a plethora of very young vineyards. This Special Club arrives from the magnificent 2012 vintage and is ripe with notes of candied orange peel, chamomille, and wild flowers.
Tasting Notes
"The 2012 Brut Special Club is the most powerful and dense of the three Gimonnet Special Clubs in the lineup. Powerful and deep, with a real feeling of vertical intensity, the 2012 possesses superb depth and textural resonance through to the finish. Still very much an infant, the 2012 has so much to offer. This is a brilliant showing." - Antonio Galloni
