PaulGosset‘LaMontre’ExtraBrut,Champagne,France(2020)

<p><em>La Montre</em> is built from micro-parcels in Aÿ and Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, where chalk and compressed sandstone give both precision and quiet power. Native-yeast fermentations, partial barrel élevage, and extended lees aging frame the 2020’s cool-edged architecture. The profile is taut and mineral: citrus pith, orchard fruit, white flowers, and a touch of flint, with Gosset’s signature fine phenolic grip. Finished <em>Extra Brut</em> to keep the tension high, it’s a chiseled, terroir-forward Champagne that tracks the passage of time with exacting detail.</p>
