Jacquesson Extra Brut Cuvee 745
| Description: | In his insightful Champagne Guide, author Tyson Stelzer writes: "No Champagne house today is on a trajectory of ascent as steep as Jacquesson's. While many houses are on the prowl for more fruit to increase production, Jacquesson has drastically slashed its yields and contracts to radically improve quality in spite of lowering quantity.each time I look, this little house in the village of Dizy appears more like a fanatical grower-producer." Naturally the firm's investments to boost quality while reducing production has made their Champagnes more expensive as well as a lot harder to get. That is why we are especially excited to announce that we have acquired a new parcel of Jacquesson's Cuve 745 directly from a cellar in France and are able to offer it at the lowest price on the web. James Suckling 93 Points - "a little more bright and vibrant than the 744, with notes of poached pear, baked apple, grapefruit, lemon rind and pistachio. Fine bubbles with crisp acidity and a pure, fruity core. Very drinkable. 0.75g/L dosage.". Wine Spectator 92 Points - "a firm, focused Champagne, with the lacy mousse carrying a lovely range of ripe yellow pear and cherry fruit, toast point, preserved lemon, ground ginger and anise flavors. A minerally underpinning of chalk and brine notes emerge to drive the racy finish. Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Meunier. Disgorged December 2021. Drink now." |
