“Elegantly vinous and flavorful, it’s a fine success.”

William Kelley, Wine Advocate

Crafted in a refreshing, dry style that’s certain to appeal to bubbly fans and wine lovers alike, the beautifully refined 93 pt. Gosset Brut Grand Rose reveals fragrant rich fruit and fresh lively acidity with a luxurious pinpoint mousse, a deeply structured expression of Champagne’s chalky terroir with the ability to age at a simply unheard-of price.

Founded by Pierre Gosset in 1584 in the village of Ay, Champagne Gosset is the oldest wine house in the region, first crafting still wines long before the “methode champenoise” practice of creating bubbles was adopted and remaining in the Gosset family for over four centuries before its purchase by Reynaud-Cointreau in 1993. Considered one of the smallest Grande Marque producers, Gosset works with more than 200 growers located primarily in Premier and Grand Crus throughout the region, blending the Grand Rose cuvee with equal portions of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir including 8% still wine. Fermenting each of the growers' plots separately, chef de cave Odilon de Varine, formerly of Deutz and Henriot, employed Gosset's unique practice of blocking malolactic fermentation, instead allowing the wine to remain on the lees for four years to enhance complexity and adding a relatively low dosage to allow for the transparent expression of the terroir’s minerality, yielding a rich core of fresh, ripe fruit with a tantalizing bead of fine bubbles on a long, elegant finish.

Described as “a reference-point producer of racy, vibrant wines loaded with character” by Antonio Galloni of Vinous, the powerfully built 93 pt. Gosset Brut Grand Rose is delicious on its own while boasting the structure to enjoy with food, and at over half off the average price a superb bargain to savor over the next decade, if only you can manage to save a few.

A graceful rosé Champagne, with an enticing mix of mineral, ripe fruit and floral aromatics wafting from the glass, while detailed notes of baked white cherry and yellow peach, chopped almond, fleur de sel, grated ginger, orchard blossoms and chalk ride the fine, raw silklike texture on the palate. Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Drink now through 2026.

93 points, Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator (Sep 2023)

A fruity and open rosé champagne with notes of red apples, raspberries, brioche and honey. Touch of balsamic. Medium-bodied, with soft bubbles and a broad, inviting array of red berry fruit. Nicely dry and fresh at the end. 50% chardonnay and 50% pinot noir, based on the 2016 harvest with 8% reserve wines, with 8% red wine. Disgorged October 2022. 8g/L dosage. Drink now.
