Gosset Grand Millésime Brut is a vintage Champagne, so every grape comes from a single good year. It's made by Champagne Gosset, founded in Aÿ in 1584. That makes Gosset one of the oldest wine houses in Champagne.
The blend is Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The grapes come from villages such as Aÿ, Ambonnay, Cramant, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger and Vertus. Gosset skips malolactic fermentation, which keeps the wine crisp and fresh. It then ages at least four years on its lees. A low dosage, about 4 grams per liter, keeps it dry.
In the 2016 vintage, the first smell brings fennel, star anise and a touch of mint. As it warms, poached pear and almond come through. The sip is elegant, with mirabelle plum, rhubarb and apple. The middle feels dense and full. It ends fresh and tangy, with a fine, gentle bitterness.
Critics like it too. Vinous and Wine Spectator each scored the 2016 vintage 94 points.
Chill it well and pour it into a white wine glass. It's great with oysters, scallops, roast pork or duck with figs. It comes in Gosset's old-style bottle and keeps getting better with a few years in your cellar.
