WINE MAKING PROCESS
Champagne Gosset Grand Millésime Brut 2016 is produced using grapes sourced from various vineyards within the Champagne AOC. The winemaking process deliberately avoids malolactic fermentation to preserve the natural freshness and fruit character. Each plot and cru is vinified separately. The wine is aged for a minimum of four years on its lees, followed by a minimum of six months in bottle after disgorgement. This approach aims to achieve a linear, focused, and precise style.
