Le Fleuron 2014
Le Fleuron 2014 is regarded at Pierre Gimonnet as the house's classic vintage champagne. It is produced only in good years and is made entirely from Chardonnay. The blend is composed as follows: 38% Chouilly (Montaigu) and 20% Cramant (Buissons) as grands crus, plus 32% Cuis (Croix-Blanche, Roualles) and 10% Vertus (Justices, Grillettes) as premiers crus. It spent four years on the lees and has a dosage of 5 g/l.
The wine combines vinosity and elegance with distinct mineral freshness. The premiers crus provide tension, the grands crus depth, and the ageing potential is good. Serve it at 9 to 11 °C in a white wine glass with some volume. It goes with sweetbreads, pan-fried pike-perch, lobster or a mature Comté.
