Champagne Geosset is undoubtedly the oldest house in Champagne. It was founded in 1584 in Aÿ by Pierre Gosset. In the middle of the eighteenth century, the Gosset family discovered bubbles in their wine when it began to ferment in the bottle, and since then Gosset Champagne has been produced almost continuously. Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier grapes are mostly purchased from grape growers who have vines located in the premier Cru territories and in the region. Wines do not go through malolactic fermentation, this allows them to retain their natural freshness once they are bottled, aged and released. The wines are aged for at least three years in the bottle, based on the ancient examples found in the cellars of Aÿ. They are thus unique to Gosset and the Champagne region.

The term Champagne Blend refers to one of the world's most distinctive wine styles – the sparkling wines made from Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier that are most famously associated with the Champagne region of northern France. Pinot Noir brings structure and body, whereas Chardonnay brings freshness, acidity, and elegance. When used, Pinot Meunier adds floral and fruit-driven aromas to the wine.

Champagne is a wine region in the historic province of Champagne in northeastern France. The area is best known for the production of sparkling white wine that bears the name of the region. EU legislation and the laws of most countries reserve the term "champagne" exclusively to wines coming from the wine limits of Champagne, legally defined and divided into five wine-growing districts of the historical province: Aube, Côte des Blancs, Côte de Sézanne, Montagne de Reims and Vallée de la Marne.
