Champagne Michel Gonet Brut 6g

Enjoy it now, or within two years of vintage. No need to decant before serving. Michel Gonet is a family winery of six generations, nestled among 40 hectares of scenic vineyards in Côte des Blancs, Champagne. The Gonet’s journey with wine-making officially began in 1802 when Charles Gonet founded his own champagne house. For a long time, the family operated under the name “Gonet et Fils”, until Michel Gonet founded his own cellar in 1973. This winery is now in the skilled hands of his daughter, Sophie. Michel Gonet winery produces several “Blanc des Noirs” wines, delectable, white sparkling wines made from the red Pinot Noir grape. The Côte des Blancs boasts a unique range of natural features for cultivating this delicate fruit, including the Reims Mountains. They form a natural shield, protecting vineyards from austere northerly winds. Made from 100% Pinot Noir, this lively Champagne is a perfect introduction to the delights of Michel Gonet winery. “Brut 6g” is a stunning golden colour in the glass. After two years of ageing on the lees, it is given a healthy dose of six grams of sugar per litre - making it a perfect choice for lovers of dry sparkling wines. You will discover a bouquet of delightful strawberry notes, hints of brioche, and refreshing menthol. On the palate, these notes evolve and reveal hints of salinity, lively citrus and aromatic flowers - it is an extremely food-friendly wine. The finish is long and extremely satisfying. Try pairing it with classic French food, such as seafood appetisers, fried mushrooms, or a florentine pastry.
