Vilmart is headquartered in the Montagne de Reims hamlet of Rilly la-Montagne where most of the vineyards have a northerly exposure. However, proprietor Laurent Champs is privileged to own vines in special south-facing lieu-dit, Blanche Voies, planted with 65-year-old ungrafted Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vines. The fruit from Blance Voies is the source for this "Grand Cellier d'Or" cuvé as well for firm's famous "Coeur de Cuvee" bottling.
WINE SPECTATOR 96 POINTS - "Gorgeous aromas and flavors of nectarine, chopped almond, dried white cherry, ground cardamom and ginger, lime blossoms, graphite and espresso crema are immediately present on the mouthwatering palate of this elegant Champagne. Buoyed by bright, well-integrated acidity, the flavors glide along on the fine, creamy mousse, underscored by a racy streak of salinity that drives the clean-cut finish. Shows beautiful harmony and expression. Disgorged October 2020."
