Description
Gosset is the oldest wine house in Champagne. It was founded in Aÿ in 1584 by Pierre Gosset an alderman and wine-grower who made mostly red wines. At that time the region’s still wines competed for pride of place on the best tables of France with the wines of Beaune which were made from the same grape varieties as they are today.
In the 18th century Gosset joined their neighbours and began to make the sparkling wines for the first time. It was at this time that the house adopted the unique antique flask-shaped bottle that is still used today.
Gosset’s wines are characterised by their purity and expressiveness. Grapes come mainly from premier and grand cru vineyards surrounding Epernay and their winemaking style is characterised by minimal intervention, extended ageing and no malolactic fermentation. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are the house’s focus.

2018 Balbiacus Blanc de Noirs Grand Cru, Champagne Delavenne
Pinot Noir
The 2018 Balbiacus Blanc de Noirs Grand Cru is a new release from Champagne Delavenne that immediately captured our attention when tasting their impeccable range. Made from 100% Pinot Noir this beautiful Champagne is pale golden in the glass and has a toasty nose of brioche, red fruits and mineral undertones. The palate is rounded and soft from 4 years of bottle age and finishes with a wonderful freshness and vitality that simply begs for you to go back for another sip. Mightily impressive.
