About this Item

Gaston Chiquet
Premier Cru Brut, 2008
4 (1 x 4) 750ml

Champagne Gaston Chiquet was established in 1919 and continues to make world-renowned wines from 23 hectares of vineyard located in the villages of Aÿ, Cumières, Dizy and Hautvillers, in the Vallée de la Marne. They produce both non-vintage and age-dated wines from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier grapes. Vineyards are tended to responsibly using sustainable methods and care for the environment.

Disgorged July 2017.

Critics Ratings

‘Bright and lacy, this harmonious Champagne offers a minerally, chalk-tinged underpinning and a delicate bead, with a crowd-pleasing array of nectarine, lemon sorbet, ground ginger and spun honey flavors. Disgorged July 2017. Drink now through 2028.’ - Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator, 92/100 (Nov 2018)

‘The 2008 Brut Vintage Or is relatively open and accessible wine for the year. There is good depth to the dried pear, candied citrus and floral notes, but it is without question the resonance of Ay that carries the wine. Hints of graphite, smoke and slate add lovely underpinnings of minerality. The Vintage is 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay. Dosage is 8 grams per liter. Disgorged: July 2017.’ - Antonio Galloni, Vinous, 90/100 (Nov 2018)
