The house of Jacquart was established in 1964 by Chardonnay growers. Today, it is the second largest grower-producer in Champagne, with 100 per cent of the fruit grown by the owners. Closely linked to the terroir, the wines represent a fascinating bridge between the smaller family estates and the Grandes Marques.

Nutty, bruised apple, smoky/toasty undertones, nougat as well. The wine is rich and ample, with complex flavour that fills the mouth and lasts. Aged character adds extra dimensions to this lovely wine. The finish and follow-through are clean, dry and refreshing.
