Pierre Gimonnet & Fils, a distinguished grower-producer based in Cuis, has been crafting exceptional Champagnes since the 1930s. Renowned for their Chardonnay-centric cuvées, the Gimonnet family, now led by Didier and Olivier, emphasizes purity, precision, and terroir expression. The 'Rosé de Blancs' represents a unique interpretation, blending their hallmark Blanc de Blancs style with a subtle addition of Pinot Noir to introduce delicate red fruit nuances.
