The 12 year-old cuvée is based on the 2006 vintage, although there is an 8% component of ‘reserve’ wines from other harvests to complement the character of the dominant year.
The Champagne was disgorged in December 2019 and given a dosage of 7g/l.
It is a blend of Chardonnay (49%) and Pinot Noir (51%), and, in keeping with the philosophy of Gosset, none of the wines in the blend have been through Malo-lactic fermentation, nor seen any contact with wooden vessels.
Gosset’s cellar master, Odilon de Varine, described the Champagne as having “great aromatic complexity, with plum, citrus peel, liquorice and peppermint”, adding that it is “A Champagne for true wine and food lovers.”
