Gosset's Grand Blanc de Blancs is a champagne of great finesse. Made with Chardonnays from the classified Premier and Grand Cru terroirs of Avize, Chouilly, Cramant, Mesnil-sur-Oger and Villers-Marmery, this Blanc de Blancs is remarkably elegant.

It is a champagne with a golden color and green highlights.

The nose reveals springtime floral notes of acacia, daffodil, camomile and lemongrass.

On the second nose, greedier aromas of dried fruit and honey.

On the palate, Grand Blanc de Blancs Gosset has a round, supple attack. It is a well-structured wine with a fine mineral presence, a touch of chalk and a hint of iodine and saltiness.

A superb, full-bodied, rich Champagne Blanc de Blancs that will go wonderfully with an aperitif, oysters or grilled lobster.

Gosset's Grand Blanc de Meuniers cuvée is a tribute to Pinot Meunier, the most widespread grape variety in Champagne, used mainly to give the wine suppleness.

This cuvée is composed of a majority of 2007 wines, with a small touch of reserve wines. The grapes come mainly from terroirs located around Epernay (Cumières, Pierry, Moussy, Vinay, Chavot, Monthelon and Hautvillers). These are south-facing terroirs, with shallow soils where the chalk outcrops bring minerality and salinity to the wines.

Grand Blanc de Meuniers Gosset is vinified in stainless-steel vats, with care taken to avoid premature oxidation. Malolactic fermentation is carefully avoided to preserve the wines' naturally fruity aromas.

To emphasize the natural salinity and freshness of this cuvée, it is vinified on Chardonnay lees (Avize, Cramant). The dosage is extra-brut (3 g/l) to maintain the balance between freshness and vinosity, without masking the wine's character.

Finally, Gosset's Blanc de Meuniers is aged for 9 years in the company's own cellar to develop the wine's complexity and bring out its secondary and tertiary aromas.

This cuvée has a brilliant, limpid, deep gold color.

The nose reveals notes of summer fruits (mirabelle plum, apricot, quince...).

On the palate, the Grand Blanc de Meuniers Gosset is full-bodied and mineral, expressing the characteristic generosity of the Meunier grape, with a lovely liveliness and freshness.

Gosset's Grand Blanc de Noirs is a limited edition cuvée in homage to the finesse and elegance of the Pinots Noirs used in Gosset blends.

The cellar master has chosen Pinots Noirs from Ambonnay, Aÿ, Verzy, Chigny-les-Roses and Tauxières, superb villages on the Montagne de Reims.

Grand Blanc de Noirs Gosset has a golden yellow color with golden highlights, limpid and brilliant, accompanied by a string of extremely fine bubbles.

The nose reveals a complex, harmonious palette of aromas, with notes of white fruit and a hint of pastry.

On the palate, this cuvée reveals beautiful notes of beeswax and candied citron. The attack is supple and well-balanced. The finish is lively and fresh, with saline and even iodine notes, minerality and structure.

The balance between intensity of aroma and finesse is optimal. The fruity structure of the Pinots is expressed with surprising freshness and lightness.
