"The most giving and broad-shouldered of the village bottlings in this vintage is the 2016 Special Club Oger Grand Cru, hailing from four plots in the village of Oger. Disgorged in the summer of 2024 with a dosage of 4.5 grams per liter, it soars from the glass with aromas of elderflower, ripe citrus fruit and smoke. Full-bodied and textural, structured around a rich, sweet core of fruit and underpinned by succulent but vibrant acidity, it is gourmand and fruit-forward, reflecting the identity of the southern Côte des Blancs. Gimonnet reveals that Oger is the highest-yielding village at his estate."
