Champagne Gosset, Champagne Extra Brut nvt NV

Champagne Gosset Extra Brut is a refined, vibrant cuvée from Champagne’s oldest wine house, whose history dates back to 1584. Crafted from carefully selected Grand Cru and Premier Cru vineyards in the Marne, it stands out for its pure fruit character, lively acidity and notably fresh style, preserved by avoiding malolactic fermentation.

Tasting Notes
The wine presents a bright, delicate appearance with a fine and persistent mousse. Its aromatic profile is floral and fresh, revealing white flowers such as acacia and hawthorn alongside juicy pear. On the palate, the crisp acidity gives the Champagne energy and precision, while notes of peach, mirabelle plum and fresh green vegetables add layers of fruit and subtle savoury freshness. This Extra Brut is designed to be enjoyed for its youthful vitality, although its careful lees ageing gives it the structure to develop additional complexity over the next few years when stored in a cool, dark cellar.

Production
Gosset combines fruit from some of the finest Grand Cru and Premier Cru vineyards in the Marne, with an average classification of 95% on the official échelle des crus. The grapes are harvested with the aim of preserving freshness and varietal character. The wine is made without malolactic fermentation, allowing the natural malic acidity to remain and support its fresh fruit profile. It is fermented and aged on its lees to reduce the risk of premature oxidation, then matured for at least three years in the cellar at a constant temperature.

Food & Serving
A versatile aperitif, Gosset Extra Brut is also well suited to dishes that balance savoury, sweet and tangy flavours. Try it with roast pork and apple sauce, chicken with cashew nuts, seafood, lightly spiced Asian cuisine or fresh shellfish. Serve well chilled at approximately 8–10°C. Decanting is generally unnecessary; pour gently into Champagne flutes or tulip-shaped glasses to preserve the bubbles while allowing the aromas to open.

Producer
Founded in Aÿ in 1584 by Pierre Gosset, a councillor of Aÿ and winegrower, Gosset is widely regarded as the oldest wine house in Champagne. The family originally produced still red wines from its own vineyards before the region’s winemaking gradually shifted towards sparkling wine in the 18th century. Today, the house remains known for its traditional, freshness-driven style and its careful selection of highly classified vineyards in the Marne.
