"(roughly 45% chardonnay, 40% pinot noir and 15% pinot meunier, fromenteau, arbanne and petit meslier; L223 8113):  Vivid yellow.  Musky, spice-accented aromas of nectarine, poached pear and chamomile, with a chalky mineral overtone.  Juicy and palate-staining, offering densely packed orchard fruit and orange pith flavors accented by nutmeg, white pepper and candied ginger.  Finishes smoky and very long, with resonating spiciness and excellent clarity."

"(roughly 55% chardonnay and 45% pinot noir, with about a quarter of the pinot in the form of still wine; L239 9110):  Vivid orange-pink.  Smoky red berries and fresh flowers on the highly perfumed, mineral-accented nose.  Rich but energetic and light on its feet, offering bitter cherry and raspberry flavors and a bracing jolt of orange peel.  Toasty leesy nuances emerge with air and carry through a long finish tinged with spices and flowers."

A few words about Champagne Gosset
Riddling/Remuage at Gosset
Founded in 1584, Gosset is the oldest wine producer in Champagne. At that time, the wines of Champagne were still table wines produced from pinot noir and chardonnay; the wines from Ay were ranked with the wines of Beaune as the finest in France. It was not until the 18thCentury that the production of sparkling wine began; to this day Gosset uses the same antique flask bottle that was first used in the 1700's.

Today Champagne Gosset is owned by the Cointreau family, also owners of Cognac Frapin. Annual production is 1.3 million bottles per year - many times more than beloved small growers such as Billiot, Larmandier-Bernier, or Gimonnet, but a tiny fraction of the production of the big negociant houses (Moet produces a staggering 30 million bottles per year). The wines are produced almost entirely (95%) from premier crus and grand crus vineyards. The style is resolutely traditional: in order to preserve maximum freshness, the wines never undergo malolactic fermentation. The prestige cuvees are always riddled and disgorged entirely by hand.

Gosset wines are a classic expression of the tradition of Champagne, at once powerful and full of finesse. Wonderfully fresh when young, they age superbly, mellowing into wines of great grace and refinement.


The Wine Advocate, Antonio Galloni

"The house style is one of finely-sculpted wines that possess striking clarity and precision."
