Founded in Ay in 1584 Champagne Gosset is the oldest wine house in Champagne. The Grande Réserve is the true signature of the House. It's style rests on Pinot Noir from Ay which gives the structure to the wine. Malolactic fermentation has been avoided to preserve the freshness and the elegance of the fruit and a long ageing in cellars will bring roundness and complexity. Dosage is kept low as in the style of the house (8 g/l).
This cuvée has a bright and golden colour. The nose is dominated by the freshness and the fruit. The Chardonnay brings finesse sustained by notes of yellow fruits such as peach and Mirabelle plum. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and generous. The Pinot Noir of Ay gives its structure. Hawthorn and white flowers merge naturally. Acidity is expressed by citrus fruits.
I am on a mission to find ‘the’ champagne that I would always go for, so last night we tried a bottle for my wife’s birthday having put my heart into preparing a meal for her.
I would point out that I am no sommelier but this particular champagne we found to have a rather high citrus note, we prefer a more rounded mellow flavour. It’s only our opinion, but our quest continues! Happy drinking
Although this is expensive, it is worth every penny - a superior champagne with a full bodied taste.
One to savour and enjoy even without a sunny day.
First tried in tasting room and now among my favourite champagne. Have it with a toastie or a fancy dinner
