Born under the lucky star of plentiful nature & from an early harvest from selected plots, the 2009 vintage reflects the Brimoncourt singularity & energy: a remarkable Cuvée, of extreme finesse carried by a Chardonnay-led freshness combined with the delicious maturity of a twelve-year ageing in chalk cellars.
"Concentrated and imposing, this vintage Champagne also has tremendous elegance and precision. Great depth of red-berry fruit and candied-citrus character, married to wonderful creaminess on the palate, where fine mousse is beautifully integrated in the refined composition. Lots of mineral freshness at the long, silky finish. Drink or hold " - James Suckling 93pts
For three centuries, champagne has been the synonym for fine tables, subtlety and inspired savoir-vivre. Brimoncourt is a tribute to these forever champagne values: elegance, independence, sharing and lightness.
Based in the historical heart of Champagne in the village of Aÿ, the Champagnes produced by Brimoncourt are an expression of joyous sophistication and relaxed style. Alexandre Cornot took over the Brimoncourt Champagne house in 2008 and launched its irst non-vintage Champagne onto the market in January 2014 which was the first time the name had graced a label since the 1950s. The world of champagne is full of longstanding, established brands and it can be difficult to be a newcomer but Alexandre's passion and work ethic has driven this brand forward into ever-expanding both domestically and internationally. He has worked to push the name Brimoncourt - although not totally new as it originally emerged as a small family firm created in Reims in the 19th century before being dissolved in the 1950s.
Cornot wanted to make champagnes for a contemporary lifestyle stating, “Life is short, so we should enjoy it albeit, in style.”
