Wine Review: This yellow colored Champagne opens with a few bubbles and a mild bread dough and wet stone bouquet. On the palate, this wine is light bodied, slightly acidic and crisp. The flavor profile is a prominent mineral infused green pear with notes of vichy water and a touch of lime. The finish is quite dry and its flavors linger well after it is gone. This classic Champagne is would pair well with bacon wrapped scallops. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: Bright and golden in colour. The attractive and expressive nose evokes flavours of ripe red black currants, wheat, dried fruits and gingerbread. A promise-filled introduction of outstanding concentrated yet refreshing gourmet scents. The palate is dominated by refreshing mineral notes combined with a warm and consistent flavour echoing the wine’s richness and plumpness. From under a rich expression of ripe and dried fruit, a gentle persistent freshness comes through. A subtle and beautifully crafted framework which is the signature of Gosset champagnes. Undoubtedly a wine for the table, a perfect match with sweet and subtly spiced dishes.
