With its elegant gold-flecked appearance and its extremely fine mousse, the Grand Blanc de Noirs charms from the outset. 100% Pinot Noir (from Ambonnay, Ay, Verzy, Chigny-Les-Roses and Tauxieres) this highly elegant cuvée exhibits a nose of white fruit, hints of patisserie, along with a touch of white peach and baked apple.
 
The palate is supple and balanced revealing notes of honey, beeswax and confit citron, followed by a fresh, lively finish with a salty, almost iodine, tang. A perfect balance between the intensity of the aromas and the wine’s finesse allows the fruity structure of the pinots to fully express itself with surprising lightness and freshness.
 
With a low dosage, this prestige cuvée should be enjoyed in the company of a goat’s cheese.

BASE VINTAGE: 2007
 
New cuvée of 100% pinot from Verzy first, then Aÿ, Ambonnay, Tauxières, Louvois, Chigny-les-Roses, Pierry and Cumières; less than 5% reserves; vinified on chardonnay lees; aged 9 years on lees; 5g/L dosage
 
There is tremendous richness and exuberance of pinot noir personality here, fleshy, spicy and generously black-fruited, with gorgeous satsuma plum and black cherry definition. All of the complexity of a decade of age is on grand parade in toasty character and a medium to full straw hue. Like the meunier, it proudly declares its Gosset DNA, confidently flying the house flag of definition and focus. It concludes with fantastic balance and integrity, holding wonderfully rounded, succulent presence with outstanding line and poise.
