Who makes it
Champagne J.M. Gobillard & Fils is a family Champagne house with a range built around distinct cuvée choices. Blanc de Blancs is a pure Chardonnay wine, while Privilège des Moines takes a wood aged direction, spending one year under wood with stirring. One bottle places the grape variety at the centre; the other gives ageing method a larger role.
The family business manages the full route from vineyard work to marketing, with respect for Champagne traditions.
Where it grows
Hautvillers is the place tied to the house's vineyard origin. Champagne sparkling wines gain their bubbles through a second fermentation in bottle, while lees ageing can add brioche aroma and a creamier texture. Blanc de Blancs and Privilège des Moines sit within that sparkling wine tradition, with the latter also receiving one year under wood with stirring.
What they make
The range includes two named cuvées with different points of emphasis. Blanc de Blancs is made entirely from Chardonnay, with floral brioche aromas, vibrant citrus character and almond grilled nuances on the finish. Privilège des Moines is aged one year under wood with stirring, combining candied citrus aromas with vanilla and cocoa, followed by persistent citrus mandarin flavours.
The range therefore places grape variety beside wood ageing. Blanc de Blancs is the pure Chardonnay expression, while Privilège des Moines is the cuvée defined by its year under wood and stirring.
