Grand Millésime 2012

Gosset's Grand Millésime 2012 is a fresh, elegant vintage in which Chardonnay sets the tone. The cuvée is 67% Chardonnay and 33% Pinot Noir. The dosage of 8 g/l keeps freshness, fruit and vinosity in balance without masking the purity. Gosset avoids malolactic fermentation so that the natural fruit is preserved.

The nose is fresh and expressive, with white-fleshed fruit. On the palate it feels light, with plum and pear, and the finish is long. Serve it at 10 to 12 °C in a white wine glass. It works as an aperitif and goes well with white-fleshed fish and with sushi. It also cellars well. The bottle, in the antique style, comes in a gift box.
