Gosset Grand Blanc de Blancs Brut NV

93 Points - Connoisseurs Guide

An absolute textbook example of very fine Blanc de Blancs that manages to be at once rich and remarkably graceful and light on its feet with suggestions of lemon cream and green apples sitting quietly behind its articulate, but never-heavy autolysis, Gosset's Grand Blanc de Blancs is a crisp, briskly balanced effort that sports an endless stream of tiny bubbles. It may be a tad too acidy from some situations, but it is a resounding success in the slightly chalky, slightly citrusy, slightly austere, classic Blanc de Blancs model and is certain to serve splendidly in most any aperitif setting. **Two Stars**See more

This wine’s flavors seem to be carved out of chalk, its fruit mellowed to notes of Marcona almond, toast and white mushrooms, its structure firm and classical. It’s a blend of chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims, achieving its richness without malolactic fermentation, so there’s a sharp line of acidity adding a chalky grace note in the end.

Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs gives this Champagne its typical mineral edge that partners with open apple fruits and crisp acidity. The wine perfectly marries fruit and texture. (RV)
