The fruitiness and structure of a Rosé Champagne signed Gosset
The property
A heritage of traditional know-how, the Champagne Gosset House perpetuates its style through the centuries. The Gosset family has been established in Aÿ, a Grand Cru of Champagne since the 16th century. For 16 generations, the Gosset House has perpetuated the excellence of which the guardian is today Odilon de Varine, cellar master and deputy general manager of the house. The champagnes of the house are recognizable notably by the shape of their bottle, a heritage of the "antique" flasks used in the 18th century.
The vineyard
The Gosset House owns plots on the Grands and Premiers Crus of Champagne from the Côte des Blancs and the Montagne de Reims. The approximately 140 hectares of vineyards are planted on the crus of Cumières, Courmas, Chamery, Avenay, Vertus, Villers-Marmery, Grauves, Avize Trépail or Cuis.
The wine
The Grand Rosé from Gosset is made notably from great vineyards of Avize, Chouilly, Villers-Marmery, Bouzy, Ambonnay, Verzenay...
Vinification and aging

Blend
Chardonnay (50%) and pinot noir (50% of which 8% is red wine).

Nose

The Grand Rosé de Gosset pairs ideally with foie gras, wild salmon, tarama, fish-based tapas, meats (grilled veal, poultry) or even fruity desserts based on strawberries, raspberries or blueberries.
