What is the history of Maison Pierre Gimonnet?

What is the terroir of Maison Pierre Gimonnet?
The vineyards of Maison Gimmonet cover around 30 hectares, located in the land favored by great Chardonnays: Côte des blancs. Located on slopes classified as Premiers Crus, Vertus and Cuis, and Grands Crus, Cramant, Chouilly and Oger, the vines benefit from deep rooting on chalky subsoils that give them freshness and ensure perfect ripeness of fruit and minerality in the wines. Massal selection is meticulously practiced, meaning that the most interesting vines are chosen from the best plots to be grafted when replanting.
Privileging environmentally-friendly viticulture, the Gimonnet family runs its vineyards using integrated agriculture, limiting the use of inputs to respect the soil and doing everything to pRéserver the biodiversity of its ecosystem. Practices that privilege the purity of the fruit and shape the expression of their Champagnes.
