Champagne Gosset 21 ans de Cave à Minima Extra Brut NV
Champagne, FranceFounded in Aÿ in 1584 by Pierre Gosset, Champagne Gosset is the oldest wine house in Champagne. For 17 generations Gosset was family owned, but in 1993 it was sold to the Cointreau family from Charente, owners of Frappin Cognac. The distinct Compte d’Âge wines are reflective of cognac releases, naming how long the wine has been aged before release. This recent release is the rarest and the oldest in the series yet, from base year 2020, and fruit from across the region. A tip of 4% reserve wines was added to the blend of 57% chardonnay, 43% pinot noir, fermented in stainless with no MLF (as is the house style), and into bottle in 2021 for 21 years' slumber sur lattes. This bottle was disgorged in 2022 with 3 g/L, and left in the cellars until a late 2024 release. Pouring a golden hue, this complexed wine shows its age and pedigree, weaving truffle, chestnut, fresh and dried lemon, and deep chalk along very fine mousse. The developed character is met with surprising freshness still, and lingers long with ample salinity. This is certainly a gastronomic wine, and one for fans of aged Champagne. 1250 bottlesTasted: 04 December 2025Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| France | $350.00 | 750ml | France (Euros) |
