Gimonnet-Gonet is a family house in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, in the Côte des Blancs. It brings together two families: the Gimonnets from Cuis and the Gonets from Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, both of whom sold their own cuvées from the early 20th century. In 1986 Anne Gonet and Philippe Gimonnet founded the house together; the first sales followed in 1990. The twins Charles and Anne-Sophie joined in 2012 and 2020.
Vineyards
- Côte des Blancs: Chardonnay on chalk in Cuis (premier cru) and the grand crus of Chouilly, Oiry, Cramant, Oger and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger.
- Vallée de la Marne: Meunier and Pinot Noir on clay-limestone in Troissy, Trélou-sur-Marne, Vincelles and Verneuil, where Petit Meslier has also been planted.
Approach The house intervenes as little as possible and vinifies in neutral stainless steel tanks. A new cuverie built in 2024 allows crus and even lieux-dits to be vinified separately.
Champagnes
- L'Origine: the signature cuvée, 100% Chardonnay from the grand crus.
- L'Extra: aged longer and with a lower dosage.
- L'Accord: 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay.
- Also L'Étonnant, L'Éclat, L'Identité 2019, Terre de Cuis 2018 and Terre du Mesnil 2018.
