Gimonnet Brut Blanc de Blancs Champagne Cuvée Fleuron 2019

93 points Tom Hewson (Decanter): "In a super-ripe yet bewitchingly age-worthy and energetic vintage, Didier Gimonnet's main vintage bottling from Chouilly, Cramant and Cuis shines with effusive apricot, mandarin vibrancy and bristling chalky-mineral tension, containing a compressed, immediately delicious fruitiness with a surprisingly firm structural framing. The crispness of Cuis acts as a lick of restraint in years such as this; it's a cooler Côte des Blancs terroir that can add a kick of acidic focus into a blend. Drinking Window: 2024-2034. (3/2/24)"

93 points Claire Nesbitt (JamesSuckling.com): "A lively and bright blanc de blancs that has lemon peel, sliced apple, croissant and biscuit on the nose. It’s fine and silky on the palate with light bready hints to the citrus fruit. 100% chardonnay from Cramant, Chouilly and Cuis. Disgorged in 2023. Dosage 5g/L. Drink now. (7/18/24)"

92 points Kirstaps Karklins (Wine Advocate): "The excellent 2019 Brut Blanc de Blancs Cuvée Fleuron, sourced from eight lieux-dits in Cramant, Chouilly and Cuis, was disgorged in October 2023 with five grams per liter dosage. Soaring from the glass with aromas of green apple, lemon zest, elderflower and toasted bread, it is full-bodied, textural and intense, supported by bright acids and chalky extract that provide a sensation of freshness. In short, it reflects identity of the northern Côte des Blancs with a signature touch of Gimonnet, of course. Drink: 2024-2040. (12/19/24)"
