2010 base vintage with 10% reserves from 2009 vintage; Chardonnay 60%, Pinot Noir 40% (including 8% pinot red wine from Ambonnay and Bouzy); no malolactic fermentation; 9g/L dosage.
With its confident chardonnay lead, low proportion of red wine and signature cut of malic acidity, the structure and elegant lightness of 2010 lends itself brilliantly to the delicate and graceful Gosset rose style, transcending the woes of the season to produce one of the most ethereal Gosset rose’s in recent memory.
Airy rose petals, red cherries and pink grapefruit as light as thinnest clouds glide over glittering crystals of chalk minerality, laced together with refined malic acidity and a superfine, creamy bead. Such is its exacting freshness that it looks freshly disgorged even at 18 months post-disgorgement in sublime elegance and haunting persistence
