One of the oldest brands in the region, Gosset has been making wine in Champagne since the early 1500’s, well before Dom Perignon and his trusty winemaking monks put the sparkle into the wine in 1668.
The house started out making still red wines in the former winemaking capital of Champagne, Aÿ and for many years resisted the sweeping sensation of making sparkling wine. The house to this day is focused on making wine first before a champagne.
This is in direct contrast to other houses that make acidic base wines purely for the purpose of making champagne. One of the key winemaking techniques is the absence of malolactic fermentation. This preserves the pristine nature of the fruit and highlights its lively acidity and bracing energy.
The wines therefore, benefit from an extended time in the cellar to gain their full potential. They would certainly have the potential to develop in yours.
We have been impressed by all the cuvées and the Grande Reserve Brut is an outstanding entry level champagne for a classy producer.
Gosset Champagne: Where It All Began
Gosset was founded in 1584 by Pierre Gosset. Gosset produced mostly red wines that were harvested from his very own vines. For over four centuries, Gosset has been producing and distributing the finest wines known to this world. In fact, the wines of Aÿ are even considered noble and were frequently served at the table of the kings of France.
Gosset did not start producing champagne until the 18th century, but we are more than pleased that they did decide to get into champagne production because these champagnes are most certainly some of the most sensational champagnes in existence.
In 1994, The Gosset house was sold to the Renaud-Cointreau group, a family-owned group that also owned the Cognac Frapin. In 2005 they increased production to one million bottles and at the moment this fantastic house exports 65% of its production to more than 70 countries. The Gosset house extended their house by purchasing 2 hectares of parkland with buildings that date back from the 19th century. These lands also consist of 1.7km of cellars where over 2.5 million bottles of wine can be stored as well as cuverie of 26.000 hectoliters.
