Jaffelin Cremant Brut Blanc De Blanc
| Description: | Tasting Notes\r\n \r\nIt displays a lovely pale-yellow hue with golden tints. Aromas of flowers and citrus come through on the nose, which develops buttery and brioche-like notes with age. Full and supple on the palate, with very complex secondary aromas.\r\nThis Cr\u00e9mant is perfect as an aperitif, with dessert, or paired with sea scallops or freshwater fish.\r\nMade according to the traditional method, exclusively from white grape varieties, mainly the Chardonnay (80-90%), this Cr\u00e9mant de Bourgogne Brut Blanc de Blancs is aged for a minimum of 15 months \u00ab sur lattes \u00bb (horizontally).\r\n \r\nDecanter 92 points\r\n\r\nAbout Jaffelin\r\n \r\nJaffelin\u2019s history is inseparable from that of the Coll\u00e9giale Notre Dame de Beaune (the Notre Dame collegiate church in Beaune). Over the centuries, our cellars have housed the wines of the Coll\u00e9giale and the Cardinals.\r\nThe Chapitre\u2019s cellars changed ownership in 1816, the year in which the Jaffelin brothers established their \u00ab\u00a0maison de n\u00e9goce\u00a0\u00bb (trading house).\r\nToday, our wines rest in the monastic tranquility of the Chapitre\u2019s cellars as they did eight centuries ago.\r\nJaffelin, the smallest of the great Burgundy wine houses as we like to remind people, entered a new chapter in its history in 2004, when we completely renovated our vat room and fitted it out with high precision equipment.\r\nMarinette Garnier, our oenologist-winemaker, creates our \u201chand-made\u201d wines in this magical location in the historical centre of Beaune.\r\nSince then, Jaffelin continues to present the very best of the finest Burgundy terroirs within a comprehensive collection of wines, which are recognised in prestigious wine competitions and appreciated by connoisseurs around the world. |
