The Winery

Gosset

Famously rumored to be the oldest known Champagne wine producer, 1584 to be exact, Gosset sits within Ay in Champagne. This winery, compared to the most famous Champagne houses within the region, is under much smaller production. They practices are intricate and old school, being riddled and degorged by hand and aged in small oak barrels. The higher acidity makes these Champagnes perfect for aging.

Tasting Notes

WE96
Aged for 10 years before disgorging and a further time before release, this is Gosset’s top wine from a great vintage year. Extra Brut means it is dry, although the age of this wine has softened the intense acidity and turned it into an elegant, mature wine of great complexity as well as immediate attraction. It will age further at least until 2022, although it is totally drinkable now.
CG92
Showing its age in the most elegant fashion, this complex, toasty, crisp and rich wine makes a superb showing from its first expressive aromas to its long and insistent aftertaste of chalk and minerals. Its insistent, pinpoint bubbles power an austere yet never hard or angular rendition, and this wine, its expense notwithstanding, commands a place on the best tables.
