About this winery
Founded in 1584, Gosset is the oldest wine producer in Champagne. At that time, the wines of Champagne were still table wines produced from pinot noir and chardonnay; the wines from Ay were ranked with the wines of Beaune as the finest in France. It was not until the 18thCentury that the production of sparkling wine began; to this day Gosset uses the same antique flask bottle that was first used in the 1700’s. Today Champagne Gosset is owned by the Cointreau family, also owners of Cognac...

Tasting notes
An elegant bouquet where the aromatic finesse is revealed on the palate with notes of citrus and vanilla. The mouth is frank, delicate and complex, offering minerral notes, aromas of green apple, citrus fruits, fresh pineapple, combined with floral notes and summer honey. A champagne that offers finesse, complexity and precision. Can be enjoyed as an aperitif or all over the meal. It's an ideal pairing with sea or freshwater fish (Jon Dory, sea-bream, pickeperch etc.) and small game birds or white meat. Fresh or slightly matured goat's cheese is also and ideal accompaniment with this vintage.
