Gault & Millau
"A true invitation to indulge"
" An extra dry UFO in the Champagne galaxy, which the Gosset house has made its specialty: notes of roasted citrus in chutney, ginger powder, and a string of red fruits, each more aromatic than the last. A confident definition, which we love for its comforting, cajoling qualities." (Le Guide Gault & Millau 2023)

Rated estate (2025 guide) 5 stars (Exceptional producers, representing the absolute pinnacle of quality in France and worldwide)
About the estate:
Gosset remains a small house in the world of Champagne giants, selling an average of one million bottles each year. At the head of the technical team is a dynamic duo consisting of Odilon de Varine and Gabrielle Malagu, who oversee a range that remains true to its fundamentals: freshness, liveliness, and minerality. To maintain this course despite recent climate changes and the higher maturity of the grapes, the house now favors Chardonnay in its blends, with a smaller proportion of Pinot Noir in order to maintain the consistent final taste. With its consistency and assertive style, the range, which offers numerous cuvées, including some from long-aged wines, deserved to be rewarded with an additional star. The house has joined the top of our hierarchy.

About the estate:
"The oldest house in Champagne" was founded in 1584, before the region's wine became sparkling, by Pierre Gosset, alderman of Aÿ and vineyard owner. At the time, the wines of this town, often red, rivaled those of Beaune at court. After Pierre Gosset, 13 generations followed. Now based in Épernay, the company has been part of the Renaud-Cointreau group since 1993. Gosset champagnes do not undergo malolactic fermentation. In 2016, Odilon de Varine, deputy director and oenologist, succeeded Jean-Pierre Mareigner. He was joined the following year by Gabrielle Malagu, to whom he entrusted joint responsibility for the cellar at the end of 2022.

Wine rated (2022 guide) 92/100
Rated estate (2025 guide) 2 stars (These very large estates, often blessed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves which, thanks to their consistency and the excellence of their production, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers).
About wine:
Fruity, rich, with a lovely wild strawberry flavor. The register is quite open and the dosage is well managed for an extra dry. The palette and palate are consistent, with a lovely smoothness that is not overpowering. This will allow for some wonderful food pairings.
About the estate:
The oldest Champagne house, founded in 1584, has been owned by the Renaud-Cointreau group since 1994. Now under the leadership of Odilon de Varine and Gabrielle Bouby-Malagu in the cellar, it stands out for its consistent production of wines that are intense, powerful, and carried by a beautiful tension that balances them and allows them to age harmoniously.
