Description

Reviewed by: Kristaps Karklins

Based mostly on the La Croix Blanche lieu-dit, with the rest from Les Roualles, the 2018 Special Club Cuis 1er Cru was disgorged in January 2024 with a dosage of five grams per litre. It was only logical for Gimonnet to dedicate a Special Club bottling to Cuis, since this village accounts for half its production.

Opening in the glass with aromas of peach, crème brûlée and red apple, it's muscular and enveloping, supported by ripe acidity, but finishes rather sweet. Although it has a charming perfume, the palate doesn't quite reach the level of the other Special Club cuvées. As often happens in vintages like this, it will refine with time.
