Gosset Description
Pale golden yellow; the fine, steady bubbles rise gracefully. The nose is both mineral and floral, revealing aromas of flowers, white fruits, apricots, Mirabelle plum and light notes of lemon, citrus fruit, quince jelly and honey. White flowers mingle with a hint of toastiness. There is a silky and harmonious sensation for this crisp, structured champagne.
“In our range, we lacked a Blanc de Blancs. We wanted to add one to the family, yet preserve the House style. It offers both the finesse of the Côte des Blancs and the structure of the Montagne de Reims. I thoroughly enjoyed creating this wine.” Jean-Pierre Mareigner, Cellarmaster

Wine Spectator: 94 Points
A vivid Champagne, with firm, mouthwatering acidity enmeshed with a lovely range of poached pear and nectarine, blanched almond, white blossoms and candied lemon peel. Fine and creamy in texture, with a streak of salinity chiming in on the minerally finish. Drink now through 2030. 188 cases imported.

Gosset's lemon-yellow NV Grand Blanc de Blancs ?100% Chardonnay blend sourced in Avize, Chouilly, Cramant, Villers-Marmery and Trépailopens ?opens with a very clear, precise and concentrated bouquet. It is also pure and pretty coolish/greenish with chalk, herbs and lemon peels ?really exciting! Very mineral and complex on the palate, this is a pure and finesse-full, but firmly structured and persistent Champagne with marjoram flavors in the long, stringent, tension-filled finish. This is a young and vital but serious, tightly woven and expressive, medium-bodied Champagne. It has an intense and deep taste, with excellent ageing potential. Impressive.
