Pierre Gimonnet & Fils

Pierre Gimonnet & Fils is a producer of grower champagne and an original member of the Club Trésors de Champagne.[1][2] The domaine has 28 hectares based in the Côte des Blancs with premiers crus sites in Cuis and Mareuil-sur Aÿ, and grands crus in Cramant, Chouilly, Oger, Vertus, and Aÿ; the fields are planted to 98% chardonnay and 2% pinot noir.[3] The house produces 20,000 cases annually. The house is noted for old vines, with 70% over 30 years old, and even century-old vines in the grands crus lieux-dits of Le Fond du Bateau (planted in 1911) and Buisson (planted in 1913).[3] Three generations of the family have produced champagne; today, the estate is managed by Didier and Olivier Gimonnet.[4]
