Description

"This is the House's first vintage Blanc de Blancs. The Chardonnays from 2012 lent themselves particularly well to the balance desired for a Gosset Celebris cuvée." Odilon de Varine, Cellar Master

This cuvée Celebris Blanc de Blancs 2012 is therefore a first for Maison Gosset. It expresses the quintessential Gosset style with superb freshness and aromatic complexity, achieved through long maturation in the cellar.

This Blanc de Blancs is made from Chardonnay grapes from the villages of Cramant, Ambonnay, Avize, Cumières, Passy-sur-Marne Trépail, Vertus, Villers-Marmery and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger.

Once bottled, Gosset Cuvée Celebris Blanc de Blancs 2012 goes down into the cellar, where it develops its aromas for 9 years. The dosage of this champagne is 7 g/L, just right for a fine balance between freshness and vinosity.

This champagne has a light golden color with emerald highlights.

The nose is fresh, with a hint of menthol mingling with fruity aromas of pink grapefruit and frangipane.

On the palate, the attack is clean, fresh and lemony. The wine evokes a palette of gourmet aromas of baked apples with salted butter, tarte tatin and far breton. This subtle complexity is enhanced by a spicy hint of candied ginger and star anise. The long, invigorating, mineral finish evokes fresh cranberry apple with a hint of citrus.

Cuvée Celebris Blanc de Blancs 2012 is ideal with fresh, complex dishes such as ceviches, carpaccios, marinated fish, scallop tartar, oysters or grilled fish à la plancha.

This cuvée is offered in a limited edition of 15,000 bottles.
