Very attractive fresh yeasty bread dough notes. Really impressive freshness on this long aged Blanc de Blanc, with chalky lemon and lime essence, some amazing finesse and aromatic purity here. The palate has a wealth of layering, texturally superior. It has impressive build and depth, and acidity sits under richly flavorsome lemon and peach fruit. Long, fine and focused with contained power. Drink now or for five or more years.

The Estate

Champagne Jacquesson was founded in 1798 and is one of the oldest family-owned Champagne houses. The estate gained prominence under Napoleon Bonaparte, who awarded it a gold medal for excellence in winemaking. Over centuries, the house has prioritized low-intervention methods and sustainability, producing wines that are both expressive and rooted in tradition. Today, Jacquesson is celebrated for its focus on quality over quantity, crafting cuvées that reflect the individuality of each vintage.

Warm Vintage, Chalk-Driven Precision

A warm, dry 2005 growing season in the Côte des Blancs yielded structured, expressive Chardonnay with broad texture. The chalky Grand Cru soils of Avize preserved precision despite the ripeness. A solar vintage refined by pure terroir.

Generous Year, Chalky Structure

The 2006 season was warmer and more generous, with early flowering and even ripening in Avize's chalky terroir. Extended lees aging enhances the depth from this sun-kissed vintage. A terroir of tension meeting a vintage of volume.
