Description

Cuvée N°747 belongs to Jacquesson’s prestigious 700 series and is based on the 2019 vintage (approx. 75%) with around 25% reserve wines. It combines 45% Chardonnay, 31% Pinot Noir, and 24% Pinot Meunier from Grand Cru and Premier Cru vineyards. Partially fermented in large wooden foudres, it matured for a long time on the lees and received an Extra-Brut dosage of 1.5 g/l.

In the glass, sparkling straw gold with fine perlage. The nose reveals intense citrus notes (grapefruit, kumquat), along with brioche, pastry notes, and subtle stone fruit accents. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, with a creamy texture and a salty-mineral character – with thrilling tension, elegant acidity, and a very long, vibrant finish.

In Portrait:

Jacquesson

Jacquesson is one of Champagne’s most exciting, quality-driven houses and is regarded as a pioneer of a purist, terroir-focused style. Based in Dizy, the estate farms high-quality sites around Aÿ, Avize and Oiry, mainly planted with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. The focus is on low yields, a high proportion of estate-grown grapes, spontaneous fermentation and as little intervention in the cellar as possible. Jacquesson is famous for its numbered 700-series cuvées, which finely reflect each vintage profile instead of forcing a constant “house style”. Low dosage, long lees ageing and clear terroir expression result in Champagnes with tension, depth, saline minerality and impressive gastronomic suitability – perfect for lovers of characterful, serious Champagne.

Champagne

Origin in Focus

Champagne

Champagne in north-eastern France is the home of the world’s most famous sparkling wine. The cool climate, limestone and chalk soils, and a long tradition of bottle fermentation shape its unmistakable style: tension, finesse and characteristic minerality. The main grape varieties are Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Meunier.
