The abstract Witt rings which are Gorenstein have been classified when the dimension is one and the classification problem for those of dimension zero has been reduced to the case of socle degree three. Here we classify the Gorenstein Witt rings of fields with dimension zero and socle degree three. They are of elementary type.
