Gosset 12 Ans de Cave a Minima Brut Gift Pack NV (750ML)

93 Points, William Kelley, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "Based on the 2006 vintage and disgorged in December 2019, the inaugural release of Gosset's new NV Brut 12 Ans de Cave a Minima wafts from the glass with a lovely bouquet of candied peel, warm biscuits, yellow orchard fruit and brioche. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping, it's bright and incisive, with beautifully integrated acids, a delicate pinpoint mousse and a long, sapid finish. Gosset's racy style has really synergized with the ripe vintage and long sur lattes maturation to make for a very successful cuvée." 04/20

93 Points, Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator: "A rich and creamy Champagne, with golden raisin, pastry cream and spun honey flavors layered with citrus peel acidity and a subtle, toasty underpinning. Lightly mouthwatering throughout, with a tang of salinity on the lasting finish. Drink now through 2025. 200 cases imported." 12/20

93 Points, Allen Meadows, Burghound: "A reserved but elegant nose evidences a touch of maturity while offering up yeasty aromas of green apple and quinine. The equally elegant middle weight flavors are supported by a refined but intense mousse, all wrapped in a sappy, complex and relatively dry finale, indeed it's drier than the stated dosage would suggest. This lovely effort could easily be enjoyed now or held for a few more years." 10/20

95 Points, Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast: "Aged for at least 12 years after bottling, this Champagne is richly textured, showing mature fruitiness, touches of aging from the brioche flavors and an elegant, ripe aftertaste. Drink this wine now." 12/20

94 Points, Anne Krebiehl MW, Decanter: "The deep golden colour promises the richness that nose and palate duly deliver. The first sniff reveals rounded generosity reminiscent of shortbread, further swirling brings yellow apple with overtones of ripe apricot. That apple and apricot combo settles into a mid-palate mellowness, edged and enlivened by smooth bubbles that frame all this richness with their welcome freshness. Indeed, the wine works as an indulgent aperitif but comes into its own with food." 06/20
