Brut Excellence

This starts out smoky and tense, with scents of baking spice and rising bread that slowly open to white pear and ginger flavors. The leesiness develops into mineral notes and nutty flavors. For aperitifs with Marcona almonds.

The Gosset NV Brut Excellence is an assemblage of Pinot Noir (45%), Chardonnay (30%) and Pinot Meunier (25%) sourced in Aÿ, Chigny-les-Roses, Courmas and Cumières. Pure and fresh on the nose, with bright, partly dried fruit aromas, this citrus-colored fizz is light, elegant and fresh but well structured, in short: a terrific effort at this level and a delicious aperitif.

Vivid acidity drives the baked white cherry, brioche, lime blossom and ground ginger flavors in this well-balanced, expressive Champagne. Lightly chalky in texture, with a lasting finish.

“… the oldest Champagne house, datig back to 1584. The exceptional wines are made in a rich, full-bodied style with extended aging.”
