Domaine Le Grand Clos Charles Novelle Et Fils

Gosset

Grand Rosé Brut Champagne Blend

9.2

I’m in the 91+ territory here, but this is an older NV and the age pushes this up just a touch.

From 375. Easy for my wife and I to enjoy while our two littles run around on NYE.

After the Mousse Fils L’Or d’Eugene rosé from a few days ago, this is totally different. Much more classical versus the unique Mousse. Pale copper colored in the glass. Lots of similarities to Charles Heidsieck’s Brut Reserve rosé with its strawberry shortbread and toasty layers, but the fruit isn’t as layered. Slightly chalk/limestone initially but gives way to Spiced rhubarb, red berries, white peach and an orange marmalade finish (maybe dosage peeking out as well as the age helping channel some depth and richness).
