Tasting note
Gloriously evocative, fresh aromas of Bramley apple, chervil and a hint of the seaside. An excellent Blanc de Blancs, with the delicacy and vibrancy of this Champagne style, married to the depth, length and complexity that comes from eight years' mellowing. Green apple, lemon zest, rising bread dough and Brie rind. Lovely!
In the press
Classic nose showing elegant aromas of green fruit, low toned autolytic notes and vegetal nuances. Slightly saline on the palate.
Viticulture
Chardonnay grapes from Jacquart's grand crus vineyards on the Cote des Blancs. Jacquart uses sustainable vineyard management techniques: no insecticides or acaricides, introduction of hedges and flowers on uncultivated land to promote biodiversity and only use organic amendments.
Vinification
Alcoholic fermentation in temperature-controlled tanks. Partial malolactic fermentation. Maturation : 6 years on the lees in bottles. Bottle time in the cellar after dosage: at least 6 months after disgorging.
Food Match
Enjoy with seafood and fish - especially freshwater varieties in a light sauce. Wonderful with a plate of oysters or a selection of fresh goats cheese... and would make any early summer picnic special!
