This Rosé primarily expresses the qualities of the red wines. A blend of 65% Chardonnay and 35% Pinot Noir with 8% being vinified as a red wine. To obtain the bright radiance of the chalk, the Chardonnays are selected from various crus in places where the chalk breaks through to the surface in the Montagne de Reims, the Vallée de la Marne and the Côte des Blancs. Bottled at the end of the spring following the harvest. 12 years minimum ageing in the cellars. The dosage is adjusted with precision to preserve the balance between freshness, fruit and vinosity without masking the wine’s character and purity.
Coppery hue with rose-gold highlights. Very typical of a fruity rosé Champagne with notes of strawberry jam and dried figs. As the wine warms up, a cocktail of spices emerges, including black pepper and hawthorn, accompanied by kirsch and Burlat cherries. Fresh and lively on entry to the palate, with notes of cherry, calamansi, Australian finger lime and blood orange.
?Gosset's NV Brut Rosé 12 Ans de Cave a Minima is showing nicely offering up aromas of peach nutmeg bitter orange and warm biscuits followed by a medium to full-bodied seamless and suave palate with a pillowy mousse and racy but nicely integrated acids. This new bottling delivers very good complexity and elegant evolution at the brut non-vintage level.? ? William Kelley 2023
