AR Lenoble Champagne AR Lenoble is one of the rare producers in Champagne that has been consistently family-owned and entirely independent since the very beginning. In just over twenty years, the sister and brother owners have quietly yet confidently transformed AR Lenoble into one of the jewels of the Champagne region. The wine is of course made from 100% Chardonnay grapes sourced from the grand cru village of Chouilly and originating from one exceptional vintage. 25% of the blend is vinified in oak while the ageing takes place in magnums and the final wine receives a minimal dosage only (2g/l). The resulting wine is dry, exceptionally balanced and complex with great intensity and persistence. A phenomenally fresh palate despite its vintage.

Gimonnet Gonet’s L’Origine is a Blanc de Blancs Champagne composed of fruit from five Grand Cru villages—Oiry, Chouilly, Oger, Cramant, Le-Mesnil-sur-Oger. As Gimonnet Gonet eschews the use of oak, the wine is fermented in stainless steel before it’s blended with reserve wines (30-35%), then aged in bottle for 22-36 months. Its golden colour, and mild mousse, leads to an expressive nose of bright fruit and a subtle nuttiness. The palate is grippy and fresh, yet creamy and elegant, with stone fruit, lemon zest, and a sense of minerality. 6g/l dosage.
