"The 2019 Champagne Cuvée Paradoxe Brut is, as the name suggests, a departure from the house range, coming in as 90% Pinot Noir from A and the rest Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs. On opening, it displays a deeper straw hue, although it's not over extracted. Aromas open to blackcurrant, brioche, rosemary, and crushed stone, and on the palate the wine is medium to full-bodied and ripe with a grapefruit citrus tone, an expanding mousse, and a long finish that closes with a savory flourish. This lovely wine retains the elegance of the Gimmonet range. Drink 2024-2034."
