Blanc de Noirs 1er Cru Brut Vignobles Gonet-Medeville

The wine

The Gonet-Medeville family are descendants of two great winemaking families; one from the Champagne region, and the other from Sauternes (Château Gilette). Each of their wines is stamped with the best of both these traditions. Grown in the chalky soil of the commune of Bisseuil, this blanc de noirs is a vinous champagne with an opulent, elegant structure. The bubbles are fine and delicate, sustaining the wine on the palate to a chalky finish characterised by the terroir. A racy wine.

About the Producer Gonet-Medeville

This Champagne house was established in Bisseuil in 2000 by Xavier Gonet and his wife Julie Medeville. It comprises 12 hectares of vines dispersed across 8 villages. It has shot to fame and its star is still rising. Renowned for the quality of its blends and excellent vinification (without malolactic fermentation), it produces wines which subtly combine power with finesse. The secret of their success is undoubtedly barrel fermentation.
