ABOUT THIS WINE
Gosset Grand Rosé Brut is a non-vintage rosé Champagne from the oldest wine house in Champagne, founded in 1584. The grapes are sourced from Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards across the region. A distinctive aspect of Gosset's winemaking is the deliberate avoidance of malolactic fermentation, a practice aimed at preserving the natural acidity and freshness of the grapes. The wine is also aged on its lees for extended periods, contributing to its complexity. The house's philosophy centers on enhancing the wine through its bubbles and preserving the fruit's natural character.

WINE MAKING PROCESS
Gosset Grand Rosé Brut is produced using grapes sourced from Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards in Champagne. The winemaking process is characterized by the deliberate avoidance of malolactic fermentation, a technique chosen to maintain the wine's natural acidity and freshness. Base wines are fermented in small vats. Following fermentation, the wine undergoes extended aging on its lees, often exceeding the minimum legal requirements, before being disgorged. The house emphasizes the role of bubbles in enhancing the wine's inherent qualities.
