Drinking NowArmit Recommends

Pure nose with dense, plush red fruit. Refined and classy with nice juiciness and pleasant tannic structure. Very good Savigny.

"Based on the 2020 vintage vinified in enameled vats, Geoffroy’s NV Extra Brut Expression is complemented by a 50% perpetual reserve component stored in concrete. Sourced from a mosaic of parcels across Cumières and Hautvillers, it is a blend of 45% Pinot Noir, 35% Pinot Meunier and 20% Chardonnay. The wine bursts from the glass with vibrant aromas of green...

"Subtle aromas of citrus fruit, pear, lemon curd and chalk. Fresh and crisp on the medium-bodied palate, with mineral notes and fine bubbles. Clean and balanced with a lot of freshness and vibrancy. Delicate, creamy aftertaste. Drink now." 92, James Suckling "The entry-level bottling from the estate’s home village of Cuis is always Didier Gimonnet’s priority, despite the house having...

"The 2019 Cumières Rouge Côteaux Champenois Les Chalamonts is a deep, pliant wine. Dried cherry, spice, leather and cedar all meld together nicely. The 2019 is quite pretty, especially in its soft contours, but it is also starting to show the first signs of aromatic openness. I would not wait too long to enjoy it." 92, Antonio Galloni, Vinous

"Redcurrant, wild berry, blood orange and herbal aromas with toasted notes. Fleshy nectarine, stone fruit, raspberry, cranberry and lemon offer energy. Precise, with a delicate mousse, firm minerality and steely freshness." 93, Tom Hewson, Decanter "The NV Brut Rosé de Blancs is gorgeous. It offers notable depth and texture to play off its vibrant, chiseled personality. Cranberry, mint, white pepper...

Ripe and solar, showing a dense black fruit core. The palate is lifted by floral aromatics, clean and refined with sandy , open-knit tannins. Clay and limestone soil. Aged for 11 months, 33% amphorae.

"Striking nose of candied orange peel with a touch of red berry and delicate bread dough notes. Generous and ripe with some real power on the palate, the fruit pouring over the palate in one great wave, the chalky minerality almost under the waterline, but deftly supporting the long finish. Bottled on the 27 April 2017 and disgorged in November...

"Ripe and concentrated, but youthful, bright and light-footed, this has stacks of candied orange peel character plus plenty of bread dough and a touch of celeriac. Not as dry as you might imagine for Extra Brut, but very chalky with vivid mousse at the finish. Another year or two of bottle age could bring more. From the Montaigu site, vines...

Beautifully pure, floral nose. On the palate a racy, energetic feel with nuances of stone fruit, acacia, brioche and underlying minerality. Lovely purity and vitality run like a vein through the wine, which has a long, crisp, slightly nutty finish. Exemplary Blanc de Blancs and great apéritif style. Deliciously precise with high toned citrus fruit providing thrilling focus and definition....
