A fun fizz for a lovely day

What a lovely day it has been in Town! The sun has been shining, there has been a gentle breeze and I have been trying a new Champagne producer. This is his most basic stuff and it is a bargain.

Champagne Brut Cuis Premier Cru, Gimonnet et fils

This smelled very fresh and malic on the nose, there was also a pleasing degree of minerality to it. The palate was very apple-y, a bit angular, but not short on concentration. It was quite nice. Don’t get me wrong, it was by no means special, just a good bottle of fizz for €16.
