"The latest version of Gosset's Grand Blanc de Blancs reveals youthful aromas of citrus zest, white flowers, and marzipan. Medium-bodied to full-bodied, bright and fleshy, with tart notes and a mellow mousse, it finishes with a chalky aftertaste. The structure of this Champagne suggests that it should develop gracefully in the cellar." (Wine Advocate 2021) A beautiful Champagne for fine dining!

Wine rated (2019 guide) 17/20 (Reference wine)

Rated estate (2025 guide) 5 stars (Exceptional producers, representing the absolute pinnacle of quality in France and worldwide)

About wine:

Lively yet full-bodied character, bouquet of citrus zest, white fruits, and subtle buttery notes: a superb blanc de blancs in keeping with the house's intense, wine-like style.

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.

Guide Hachette des vins

Wine noted (guide 2021) 1*Star (Very successful wine)

Rated estate (2025 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer's wines are regularly recognized by the guide)

About wine:

This blanc de blancs, made from the 2015 harvest, is extremely elegant and subtle, blending around fifteen crus from the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims regions and aged for three years in the cellar. On the nose, it offers white flowers, almonds, mango, and tangy notes of passion fruit. On the palate, it is refined and lively.

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.

About wine:

The Grand Blanc de blancs impresses with its refinement, its gently creamy texture, a beautiful length, and above all, very fine bubbles.

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.
