The 2015 Pierre Gimonnet & Fils Millésime de Collection Magnum (1500ml) is a prestige Blanc de Blancs Champagne crafted exclusively from Chardonnay sourced from premier and grand cru vineyards across the Côte des Blancs. Produced only in magnum format and aged extensively on lees, this special cuvée represents the purest expression of the Gimonnet house style, combining old-vine fruit, remarkable precision and exceptional ageing potential.
On the palate, it is elegant and beautifully layered, with flavours of lemon curd, green apple and white peach supported by notes of brioche, toasted almond and chalky minerality. The extended lees ageing contributes depth and texture, while vibrant acidity provides freshness and structure. Despite its richness, the wine remains refined and focused, finishing long with saline, citrus and mineral notes that linger gracefully.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an outstanding Champagne for collectors and lovers of premium Blanc de Blancs styles. The magnum format allows for slower development and greater complexity over time, making it a superb choice for both special occasions and long-term cellaring. Enjoy now or cellar confidently for the next 10–15 years. Pair with oysters, lobster, scallops, sashimi, roast chicken or aged Comté cheese.
