Perfumed aromas of rose petal, violet, mango and pineapple. Intensely flavored and penetrating; as vibrant and focused as this is, it's also wonderfully creamy in the middle palate, with a complete absence of rough edges. Compelling flavors of exotic fruits, toast and spices, plus a hint of caramelized banana. Very long and concentrated on the back end. An outstanding, utterly harmonious blend.

The NV Brut Grande Reserve opens with a bouquet of chalk, slate and wet stones. It is a beautifully pointed, energetic wine endowed with gorgeous drive from start to finish. Red berries, dried flowers and mint are some of the nuances that inform the finish. This is Lot # L0428123. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2016.

A plump, oily champagne with tons of ripe apples and a fleshy Pinot flavour. It is only in the finish which is rich in mineral that one can detect the Chardonnay grapes. A wonderfully opulent standard champagne and always one of the best. With aging it gets filld with sweet almond and nutty aromas.

Beautifully balanced blend based on 2005. I preferred it to Gosset's current vintage champagne. Very nervy and muscular. Not too sweet, not too tart. Drink 2011-2015.

Chardonnay-based blend. Very slightly woody/cedary nose, almost a touch of dried flowers with a hint of bread. Refined and brilliantly fresh on the palate with sufficient dosage to bring harmony. Long and finely textured. (JH)

Empty bottle 1,045 g. 40% Chardonnay, 40% Pinot Noir, 20% Pinot Meunier. Champagne Gosset work with around 200 growers who, between them, have approximately 120 hectares, mainly around Épernay. Malolactic conversion was avoided. Each cru was vinified separately, with no filtration and aged on fine lees. Winemaker Odilon de Varine. Natural cork. TA 7.8 g/l, pH 3, RS 9 g/l. Vegan. Available in over 200 shops. Plenty of richness on the palate with complex, yeasty flavours and a fine mousse. Dosage seems rather high, making the wine taste a little saccharine on the finish. Seems very expensive for what is on offer – there are many better-value alternatives out there. (AWH)
