What it tastes like.

Composed of 33% Pinot Noir and 67% Chardonnay from Côte des Blancs, Villers-Marmery, Ambonnay and Cumières. Bottled with 8 gms/litre dosage.

β€˜Since Gosset makes a point of commercializing wines only when they deem them ready, the 2012 Grand MillΓ©sime Brut will be released at the end of this year, while the 2010 and 2008 continue to wait in the wings. The wine is still quite tightly wound after its recent disgorgement, unfurling in the glass with a youthful bouquet of warm biscuits, apple, lemon and peach that picks up a more pronounced smoky top note as the wine sits in the glass. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, broad and powerful, with a deep and concentrated core, incisive acids and a precise, saline finish. This is a muscular vintage of the Grand MillΓ©sime that seems likely to evolve slowly. Drink 2020-2040.’ 94+ points, William Kelley, The Wine Advocate, May 2019.

The house

About Gosset.

Champagne (AΓΏ historically; Γ‰pernay since 2009) Β·Est. 1584

Champagne Gosset is the oldest wine house in Champagne, founded in 1584 in AΓΏ by Pierre Gosset β€” Lord and Alderman of AΓΏ-Champagne β€” who began producing still wines from his own vineyards. The Gosset family ran the house in direct lineage across 16 generations until 1993, when ownership passed to the family-owned Renaud-Cointreau group (which also owns Vedrenne and Frapin Cognac). The house relocated from AΓΏ to Γ‰pernay in 2009 but continues the unfiltered, malolactic-suppressed style that distinguishes Gosset from most modern Champagne.

Bottle questions

Before you open it.

A few practical answers for storage, delivery, and choosing the right bottle.

How should I store it before opening?

Keep it somewhere cool, dark, and steady. Wine prefers cellar temperature; spirits are happier away from heat and direct sunlight.

How long will it keep once opened?

Wine changes quickly after opening; spirits and liqueurs generally hold longer if capped tightly and kept out of heat. If it is a special bottle, ask before opening and the team can give product-specific guidance.

Can I ask for a similar bottle?

Yes. Contact Caravan with this bottle name and the occasion; the team can suggest a close match, a safer gift, or a step up or down in price.

How is it packed for delivery?

Orders are packed in bottle-safe cartons. If anything arrives damaged or looks wrong, contact the team with your order number and a photo so they can sort the next step.

What about hot weather shipping?

The team avoids making one-size-fits-all promises around heat and carrier timing. For heat-sensitive or cellar bottles, contact Caravan before ordering and they can advise the safest dispatch window.

Why Caravan backs Gosset

Champagne (AΓΏ historically; Γ‰pernay since 2009)

Gosset is the oldest wine house in Champagne, established by Pierre Gosset in 1584, and one of the smallest of the Grande Marque producers. It stayed in family hands throughout, the Gosset family selling to the Cointreau family in 1994; Jean-Pierre Cointreau is president today and Odilon de Varine makes the wines.

The house owns barely a hectare of vineyard and instead works with more than 200 growers across some seventy villages, giving the cellar an unusually wide palette of chalk-grown fruit to blend from. Around seventy individual parcels are fermented separately in small stainless steel tanks, and, the signature decision here, malolactic conversion is never allowed. That is what gives Gosset its particular tension and vinosity.

Ageing is long by any standard. The Grande RΓ©serve spends more than four years on lees rather than the three the region requires, then a further six months in the cellars after bottling before it is released; the prestige cuvΓ©es can sit for fifteen years or more. The bottles themselves are distinctive, heavy, dark and antique in shape, unique to the house. Production is about 90,000 dozen.
