    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    Goisses 2007 is an exceptional ‘07, quite possibly the best we’ve tasted. The wine represents a gorgeous interplay between poised and expressive fruit and polished minerality. Aromatically, there’s a wealth of red berry and golden fruit on the nose, which expands to include notes of sweet orange blossom and jasmine with time in the glass. Structurally this is all elegance and charm ahead of out and out Goisses power; open and silky fruit and mineral components mingle with a very fine, almost creamy bead, culminating in a surprisingly long, focussed, chalk inflected finish. All in all this is one of the most charming and alluring young Goisses we can remember, a blend of 65% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay, with 4.25g/l dosage, disgorged in June 2016 after 8 years sur lie. Winemaking was done primarily in wooden barrels, with no malo-lactic fermentations carried out.

    Ian d'Agata,

    A wine of remarkable finesse rather than power, the 2007 Philipponnat Brut Clos de Goisses boasts laser-like acidity and accuracy of flavor that are memorable. One of my favorite Champagnes, Clos de Goisses is usually a powerful bubbly in its youth, but this 2007 is rather politely-styled, almost delicate in fact, in its white fruit and floral aromas and flavors. Best of all, it is still exceptionally young and will last for decades in a proper cellar.
