Wine Region: Champagne - France
Grape:15% Pinot Meunier, 25% Pinot Noir & 60% Chardonnay.
Tasting notes:A magnificent Champagne wine with a beautiful deep yellow colour and golden hues. The aromatic expression is dominated by notes of dried fruit, ripe yellow fruit such as apricot and peach. Notes of hay, quince with a few hints of honey complete a picture rich in flavours. The palate is both ample and delicate, enhanced by a fine and balanced bubble. Elegance dominates with a persistent, mineral finish. Goose foie gras with truffles. Back of pike-perch with morels. Braised veal chop with trumpets of death.
Expert Rating:Wine Spectator 93/100.
About the winery: The Jacquesson champagne house is based in Dizy, in the Marne, 3 km north of Epernay and about 20 km south of Reims.
