With a little more Pinot Noir than its Rosé sibling (57% Chardonnay and 43% Pinot Noir), this has been bottled as Extra Brut with 3g/L of sugar. A beguiling and seductive wine, completely à point five or so years after disgorgement, the wine serves as an object lesson to those, should there be any, who enquire why Gosset (historically associated with wood ageing) no longer uses oak and why the house does not put its wines through the second, malolactic fermentation. The wonderful creamy richness can only therefore be a testament to the quality of the fruit, to the careful ageing regime and to the timing of the disgorgement. Very complete and harmonious, the wine boasts citric and honeyed notes, with hints of nougat, lemongrass, butterscotch and dried apricot, and then an attractive nutty finish.  An outstanding Champagne which is approachable yet beguilingly subtle; supple and rich, all a function of its eminent eligibility and food matching potential.
