Gallimard, Cuvee Reserve Blanc de Noirs, NV

£29.50

This is one of the best value for money Champagnes I've ever tried.

Made from 100% pinot noir. Red fruit aromas with some sourdough toastyness on the nose. Fresh cherry and almond with a long clean finish. So much flavour in this one.

Didier Gallimard and his son, Arnaud, owns 10 hectares of prime vineyards on the steep slopes around Les Riceys in the southern Aube. Didier is the 6th generation and Arnaud the 7th of this family domaine.

Their vines’ average age is over 30 years and the dramatically sloping vineyards, which are of chalk and Kimmeridgian limestone, are planted mainly to Pinot Noir and just a little Chardonnay. Their wines are full and rich and offer enticing aromas and flavours of summer fruits.
