Description
GRAND BLANC DE BLANCS BRUT
Cellar master Odilon de Varine comments:
“We are delighted to add a Blanc de Blancs to our existing range of wines, whilst conserving the Gosset house-style. This cuvée encompasses the fi nesse of the Côte des Blancs and the structure of the Montagne de Reims.”
GOSSET Grand Blanc de Blancs is made from 100% Chardonnay grapes grown in fifteen villages of the Côte des Blancs (Avize, Chouilly, Cramant, Le Mesnilsur-Oger, Oger, Cuis) and the Côte des Noirs (Villers-Marmery, Tours-sur-Marne, Trépail). Each of these villages and terroirs brings their character, complexities and aromas to the wine, culminating in this exceptional cuvée.
Vinified and aged on lees to eliminate all risk of premature oxidation. Malolactic fermentation is carefully avoided to preserve all the natural fruit aromas of the wine and to allow the wines to undergo longer ageing.
NOSE: A mineral and floral nose with aromas of blossom and white fruit, apricot, and Mirabelplum punctuated with tangy citrus notes of lemon, quince jelly, and honey.
