A single variety, an outstanding harvest. Our Blanc de Blancs allies the nobility of Chardonnay of fine origins with the quality of an exceptional vintage.
The varied origins of our Chardonnays are one of the components of the Jacquart signature. This very singular 100% Chardonnay cuvée is the fruit of a blend of a variety of nuances, selected with lavish care and attention.
TASTING NOTES
The Facts
Chardonnay grapes from our grands crus vineyards on the Côte des Blancs (Chouilly, Avize) and premiers crus vineyards (including Villers-Marmery), ripened to perfection.
The Look
Sparkling, brilliant, straw gold. Very lively with good persistent mousse.
The Nose
Cherry blossom, vanilla and white pepper mingle with the irresistible notes of still-warm butter brioche.
The Flavour
Fresh and light at first, then an explosion of mouthwatering flavours with white peaches and citrus notes in abundance. Very long, light, elegant finish.
The Time and Place
Cries out to be enjoyed with seafood and fish – especially freshwater varieties in a light sauce. Wonderful also with a plate of oysters, or a selection of fresh goat’s cheese… and would make any early summer picnic very special.
