Description

Cuvée 742 DT is based on the 2014 vintage (approx. 80%), supplemented by 20% reserve wines from Grand & Premier Cru sites. After approximately 94–96 months of lees aging ("Dégorgement Tardif" in April 2023), it was disgorged with an Extra-Brut dosage of 0.5 g/l.

In the glass, it shimmers with a delicate straw gold. The nose enchants with ripe white and yellow fruits (apricot, peach), brioche, hazelnut, and a fine interplay between fruit and terroir. On the palate, a silky-creamy texture combines with lively citrus freshness, salty minerality, and an incredibly 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.

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.
