Description
Gosset Celebris 2007 Extra Brut In Gift Box (75cl)
Introduction:
This Cuvée, created in 1993, is the culmination of Gosset style and immediately joined other high-end champagnes in its class.
A beautifully complex and structured wine aged for a minimum of 10 years in the cellar comments Odilon de Varine, Cellar Master.
The famous CELEBRIS bottle is an exact replica of an antique bottle dating back to the 18th century.
Tasting Notes:
The bubbles are fine and rise in a thin and persistent ribbon. The nose is fresh with smoky and hazelnut aromas also revealing minty, even slightly spicy notes. A fine tension on the palate with notes of brioche. The delightful sharpness of Chardonnay reappears on the finish with a hint of pink grapefruit.
Winemaking:
Fermentation vessel Stainless steel tanks
Maturation time 10 years before disgorging
Grape varieties: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir
Residual sugar (grams per litre) 3 g/L
A perfect aperitif or with unusual food pairings such as Aveyron lamb, globe artichokes, Tonka beans or Brie de Meaux with vanilla.
Champagne Gosset is the oldest wine house in Champagne established in Ay in 1584 and is owned by the Cointreau family. The Cointreaus also own Gosset's sister company, Cognac Frapin, and Jean Pierre is currently C.E.O of both companies. They bought Gosset in 1993 when Albert Gosset of the original Gosset family died. The Cointreaus hold strong the belief that Gosset is a family run business and maintain the hands on approach that was started by the original Gosset family.
The Gosset style is very creamy, dry but not acidic, full, biscuity and yeasty. All the cuvees have good bottle age. The champagnes are excellent by themselves or with food.
