Thienot La Vigne aux Gamins
Item No. FR3-1458G02B
Champagne Thienot is a contemporary Champagne House led by the Thiénot family. Over the past 25 years, owner Alain Thienot has remained faithful to the key values which have built this producer’s world renowned reputation – quality, modernity and luxury. His motto reads; “A single passion: wine. A single obsession: quality”, and this attention to detail is key in producing some of the region’s finest vintages, notably Thienot’s iconic "La Vigne aux Gamins". From their bases in Ay and Avize, Thienot continually creates wines that win international praise and acclaim.
Made entirely from Chardonnay grapes soured from old vines planted in a 100% Grand Cru vineyard in Avize, la Vigne aux Gamins is a highly distinctive wine, effusing love and flavours. The Champagne is very clear, almost translucent in appearance, with a delicate bread. The bouquet evolves with great finesse, with a hint of mineral character, fruit and white flower aromas and the impressive length that is synonymous with great terroir. Stripped of any superfluous frills, La Vigne aux Gamins displays exceptional purity.
Wine Spectator 93: "Hints of marzipan and gumdrop add richness to the flavors of patisserie apple, lemon curd, smoke and honeycomb in this firm, well-cut version. Offers a finely detailed bead and a lasting finish, with a hint of blanched almond. Drink now through 2025. 262 cases made."
