Roi Soleil, a tribute to Louis XIV to whom champagne owes its worldwide influence, the Roy Soleil cuve was created in 2003, imagined by the young team who were beginning to master their talents. Made from Chardonnays from the Grand Cru plots of Mesnil, this cuve is aged for 6 months in oak barrels (demi-muids) renewed for 1/6 per year and rests in bottle for a minimum of 3 years.

The fine and elegant nose opens with notes of candied fruits (citrus, apricot) and gingerbread. The aromatic development under wood of great finesse gives it a richness of remarkable aromas. The full mouth attack is dominated by ripe citrus fruits. It offers beautiful freshness and a length worthy of the greatest wines.

Gonet is one of the most distinguished of the Champagne houses, located in the Grand Cru village of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger in the Cote des Blancs. Pierre and Chantal, brother and sister, took the reins of the seventh generation of winemaking at the ages of just 22 and 23. Their father, Philippe Gonet, had passed, and so the siblings had responsibilities thrust on their shoulders, growing closer in the process despite contrasting personalities. While they could have easily sunk, they not only were able to swim, but soared. Today, Pierre oversees winemaking and the vineyards while Chantal is the face of Gonet internationally.
