Gaston Chiquet is a domaine in Dizy, in France’s Champagne appellation. The 58-acre estate is in the heart of the region just north of Epernay, and it was founded in the 18th century by Nicolas Chiquet. Today it is run by bothers Antoine and Nicolas Chiquet who grow the traditional varietals of Champagne, Chardonnay, Pinot Meunier and Pinot Noir. The domaine makes half a dozen well-reviewed Champagnes, but of particular note are the “Special Club” vintage Bruts, which are Grand Cru Champagnes made in accordance with the strict regulations of the Tresors de Champagne Club. The Tresors de Champagne is a group of 26 Champagne makers who agree to each produce a Special Club Champagne only in extraordinary vintages. The 2004 Chiquet Special Club Grand Cru is 70% Chardonnay and 30% Pinot Noir.
