Perfume

Perfume

First impressions: delicate, elegant and complex, harmonizing around a rich, fragrant quintet including a trio of fleshy, soft, deliciously scented fruit such as apricots, vine peaches and pears, and a duo of suave, elegant fresh flower scents: jasmine and white lilac, instantly creating a subtly seductive setting.

Color

Colour and aspect: clear, luminous, crystalline pale gold spangled with flashes of green sparkle and amber glitter.

Taste

Taste

First impressions: full-bodied, this pleasant, finely honed champagne has liveliness and vinosity, its flavours reflect and confirm the bouquet. The judicious blend of grapes from different vineyards is an ode to perfection: pinot noir releases a rush of fruit flavour backed by a rounded, lush, velvety structure with attractive but discreet hints of sweet almond and wild sloes liqueurs.

Serve at:

06 - 08 °C.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1584
  • Oenologist: Guillaume Berbé
Gosset's charter of excellence guarantees Gosset's noble quality to connoisseurs of great wine. This excellence, recognised for more than four centuries, is the reason for the world wide prestige and distinction of Gosset Champagnes. In it, the house of Gosset commits itself to respect its fundamental values and its traditions of prefection. Any grapes destined for the Gosset cellars have to be hand picked and in perfect condition. They only consist of the the three varietals authorised in Champagne, the Pinot Noir, the Chardonnay and the Pinot Meunier.

Only the first pressings, also called "cuvées", are used for blending to make Gosset Champagne.
Some growths undergo their first fermentation in oak vats, to achieve their concentrated aromas and exemplary finesse. These vats are marked with the seal of the house of Gosset, as was done originally by Claude Gosset, alderman of Ay in 1630.

The first fermentation is never followed by a malo-lactic fermentation, which inevitably causes a loss of freshness, and this ensures that Gosset champagnes keep better.

The Gosset blends are made from the best growths of the Marne (Grand & Premier Crus), with an average of 95% on the official scale of growths.

All Gosset Champagnes are aged in bottles laid on slats in a deep cellar at a steady temperature. They are disgorged after an average of 5 years of aging, when they reach their peak.

Manual remuage (turning of the bottles) is still carried out at Gosset, and precedes the disgorging which is carried out in the traditional.way.

Before being shipped, Gosset Champagnes rest several months in the cool calm of the Gosset cellars.
All bottles which carry the Gosset collar contain a great Champagne, exclusively created by the house of
Gosset at Ay-Champagne.

The great growths are sold in an "old-style" bottle identical to that used by Jean Gosset, another Ay alderman , this time in the 18th century. It is unique and instantly recognisable the world over.

The epitome of complexity, aromatic richness, finesse, freshness and harmony, this "Grand Millésime 1999 Brut", with its aristocratic allure and unquestionable breeding is perfect with food and can be enjoyed throughout an entire meal. Ready for drinking, it is a marvellous match for modern, traditional or regional French or Asian cuisine. It complements almost any kind of dish, with the obvious exception of those with excessive acidity or bitterness. There are innumerable possibilities but why not try scallops roasted with preserved lemon and lime blossom or snails in choux pastry with parsley spiked cream, a carpaccio of red tuna with aubergine caviar or rolled fillets of baby turbot stuffed with soya beans and crab; pigeon stewed in juice fragranced with lemon leaves or a farm-raised veal chop with potato petals and light meat juices? For dessert try a semolina and almond pudding or crisp caramelized pear biscuits… There is just one thing to remember when deciding on a match: opt for a creative, well-balanced dish that will complement but not mask the flavour of the wine.
